How long after you put your toddler down do they actually fall asleep? What does that gap look like?

DD asks to go to bed by 7:15 every night, but often doesn't fall asleep for 20-30 minutes after we leave the room. She's quiet and happy during this time, just rolls around, plays, and eventually falls asleep... I read somewhere that your child shouldn't fall asleep immediately because that can signal that they are overtired at bedtime and don't have sufficient self-soothing techniques, but 30 minutes seems like a lot!

At bedtime, he's usually asleep within 5 minutes but in can take up to 30 minutes during nap time.
-
Anywhere from 5-20 min, he's usually lying quietly, sometimes rolling around.
-
It can be anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour. He is 2.

5mins to an hour. Just depends
-
5-10 minutes, she usually rolls around to get comfortable and then falls asleep.

Anywhere from 5 min to 30....she likes her bedtime downtime!

@septca: DS (19 months) is pretty much the same, we put him in his crib at 8 and he rolls around quietly for 10-15 minutes before falling asleep.

5-20 mins. Usually he's rolling around and sometime babbling up a storm. I'm often amazed that he even falls asleep on his own at all sine he seems really excited to be rolling in his crib.

Usually 45 minutes to 1 hour, very rarely he'll fall asleep quicker.
