Research finds that the age at which children transition from napping varies widely, from 2 years to 7 years. Research finds that most children also drop their nap gradually— going from napping consistently every day, to napping inconsistently, to dropping the nap entirely.

So when do most children make this transition? A meta-analysis from 2020 found the following:

➡️ Less than 2.5% of children stop napping before age 2

➡️ 33% of children stop napping by age 3

➡️ 57% of children stop napping by age 4

➡️ 80% of children have stopped napping by age 4.5

➡️ 94% of children have stopped napping by age 5.5

Visit the Parenting Translator newsletter for more research on napping (including links to all of the research) including why children stop napping and what to do as a parent when your child drops their nap!

Respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, is a common respiratory virus that usually causes mild, cold-like symptoms. Most people recover in a week or two, but RSV can be serious, especially for infants and older adults. RSV is the most common cause of bronchiolitis (inflammation of the small airways in the lung) and pneumonia (infection of the lungs) in children younger than 1 year of age in the United States.
