Charlie is 5 1/2 and can't really sleep 12 hours at night anymore. My ideal sleep schedule for him would be 8:30-7:30am because the kids need to leave for school by 8:20.
Olive needs at least 12 hours at night, but girl is in her threenager 3's and can really fight bedtime!
What would be your ideal 11 hour chunk?

If I had to pick 11 hours it would be 8:00 to 7:00
LO is 3.5 and doesn't nap anymore so she usually sleeps 7:30 to 7:30 (and a lot of times she sleeps in). She loves her sleep!

9-8
But my kids don't sleep 11 hours at night! Usually 10. Sometimes less.

630-530 on weekdays (this is what DD does)
8-7 on weekends... but obviously it doesn't work that way so we are stuck getting up early on weekends too

8-7 for us - but he can't make it til 8 and only sleeps about 10.5 hours so it's normally 7.30 - 6!

8-7. She usually does somewhere around that. Some days we can eek out 8-7:30 or even 8 which is amazing. Some days it is 8-6:30.

830-730, which is normal sleep nowadays. I prefer when it's 730-730+!

My pick would be 8 pm - 7 am, but he seems firmly stuck at 7:30pm-6:30 am....so close!

8 - 7, which is roughly our norm. Most days, though, she's asleep a little before 8 and wakes up a little before 7, but we don't go in to get her until 7 unless she's really getting ticked.

I would also love 8-7 or 8:30-7:30. Unfortunately my 2 y/o only sleeps 9-6 (sometimes even earlier than 6!) and always seems fine w just 9 hrs + 2 hr nap.

Ha! I'd take any 11-hour stretch 
The toddler maxes out at 10, and the newborn is still on 2-3 hour stretches at his best.
If it were my lucky day, I'd pick 8-7.

My LO has never slept 11 hours straight in her life! But if she did, but ideal would be 8-7. Or during my school year, 7:30-6:30.
As it is...she sleept anywhere from 8-8:30 to 6 am. On her best days.

HAHAHAHAHA 11 hour chunk! I *wish*! In a fantasy land where they slept that much, I'd take 8-7.

currently at aged 3 my LO (girl) does 12 hours 7ish pm to 7ish am. no daytime naps though, maybe some "quiet" time in the late afternoon.

8-7.
My son is an 11 hour guy. Or just under. Last night was 745-640

8-7 but he rarely sleeps a full 11 even without a nap.
The baby is all over the place

I would take any 11 hours if he'd sleep that long. Our norm is 7:30-5:30, I'd take another hour in the morning.

I would love any 11 hour stretch too! LO is 3 1/2 and we are lucky if she sleeps 8-6. The last three mornings (after going to sleep after 8) she has been up at 5:45, 5:30 and 5:50! She no longer naps consistently so she is just not a sleeper!

I don't understand this "11 hour chunk" you speak of??? Speaking another language, perhaps? 
Ultimately, I'd take whatever they would give me.

8-7 would be amazing! My DS could do it but my DD usually wakes him up.

I'll take 7.30 - 6.30 please!
E really needs 12 hours at the moment but she fights sleep every night right now!
