OK, J has been fighting or outright refusing his nap since Wednesday. He took a 5-10 minute nap in the car on the way home from the zoo, but did not go back to sleep once he got home. He went down really late Thursday, he's normally asleep between noon and 1, and he fell asleep at 3:45. He didn't nap at daycare on Friday. Yesterday he napped in the car for 20 minutes around 3:30. Today, he has yet to nap. His bedtime has not varied, his wakeup time hasn't really either except Saturday when he slept in an extra hour.
Any one else's kid dropping their naps? Is this a phase, or are we going to have to deal with a sleep deprived kid in their terrible 2s?
Re: Nap refusal
But he definitely still needs the naps, 90% of the time he naps and it's a 2+ hour nap.
I'm not ready for him to drop naptime yet. Another vote that it's just a phase.

But my lamenting aside, back to your question Most of our playgroup kiddos have been dropping their nap around age 3, give or take.
