@kpc324: I'm not there yet (LO is almost 2.5), but I would say she's at an appropriate age for dropping the last nap. Since you mentioned that her night sleep hasn't been affected, I'd keep offering the nap to her and see if she takes it or not. You may find that next week she'll be back to napping, then skip a week or two, then go back. It's a long transition for many kids before they drop the nap for good. Personally I'll be ecstatic if my LO can nap until 3. Fingers crossed!

We are in the same boat! My DD turned 3 last month and has been skipping naps about once a week for two-ish months. She's skipped her nap 2 days in a row now. She's in a toddler bed and just gets up, runs out and says "I just took a faster nap". When I took her back to her room today she peed in her bed on purpose so she could come out we've been working on independent play. I find that if there is entertaining music on in the background (she's been enjoying The Lion King soundtrack) she is more likely to engage in other tasks quietly or even just listen while staring into space! It's amazing. Im thinking of checking out some book/audio duos at our library for a few minutes of TV free quiet time. And if all else fails, lll just let her watch shows after I put her sister down instead of right before dinner. My goal isn't to add more screen time, just rearrange it, if that makes sense.

My son will be 3 in November and stopped napping at the end of the summer. Seems pretty normal to me! It's been hard to lose my tiny bit of alone time/sanity in the afternoons, but oh well. Good luck!

My DS turned 3 in Aug and he was randomly skipping naps this summer when the new baby arrived. He has returned to his naps, which can still last 2-3 hours. At school he only naps 1.5-2 hours.

His bedtime is between 8&8:30, which is too late for me!!! I'm tired!
