Pediatric sleep experts recommend aiming for at least 11 hours of nighttime sleep and 1.5 - 2.5 hours of daytime sleep. Typically, 24 month olds need at least 11 - 14 hours of total sleep per day to be sufficiently rested. Your child’s schedule may vary, and that is normal. However, please note there is a range of normal as some children have lower or higher sleep needs. The recommendations listed below represent the average amount of sleep typically needed at this age. Read on to learn how much sleep your 24 month old needs, the ideal nap and bedtimes, and how to work through common sleep problems. Now that your child is 2, it’s time to update their schedule and ensure you’re prepared to help them through the dreaded 2 year old sleep regression. Speaking of playtime, you may notice your child is beginning to show interest in playing with other children and gets excited to see friends.īy 24 months, your toddler should also be able to participate in a game of catch, walk up and down stairs while holding onto a rail, and follow simple instructions like, “go put your shoes by the door,” “please eat your apple slices,” and “please tell me exactly what buttons you pressed to permanently turn the TV to Spanish.”
At this age, a toddler’s imagination really flourishes, along with their vocabulary, making playtime loads of fun.
Congratulations, your baby is 2! While 2 year olds are known for their tantrums (hello, big feelings), there are SO many things to look forward to.
