At home around 3/3.5.
He kept napping at preschool until his very last day.

DS dropped the nap at 2.5. DD is turning 3 soon, and has mostly stopped napping but not quite there yet.

Right after she turned 2. We tried to bring it back for months.
It was pretty miserable for a while; we pulled her bedtime forward to help. Still only naps if she's sick, at 4.

Oldest at close to 5. Youngest still napping at 2.

My first dropped it shortly after he turned 3.
My youngest is 2 yrs and 9 mo and still doing a mid-day nap and doesn't function well without it.

At home: 2.5/3ish
At daycare: still napping at 3.5 (and I wish she'd stop because she won't go to bed until 9 as a result)

OMG. No toddler should be deprived of a daily nap.

Kid 1 took a nap every day until the 1st day of kindergarten at 5yr 2mo old. Kid 2 dropped nap in Pre-K 4, just before his 5th birthday.

Both kids flirted with not napping around 2 1/2, but we pushed through. Sleep is important.

My son just turned 4 and is still napping every day for 2 hours at home since he is in morning preschool. But he sleeps less at night. We put him to bed at 8:20 and usually does not fall asleep until 8:45 and awake by 6:30-7.
He will have to drop his nap in September when he starts PK4.

Older kids dropped the nap at 5 and almost 4.

One stopped at 2. He’d be up all night if I forced it and he slept for even a few minutes. The other was still napping when he started K. He would fall asleep in the car ride home.
