Most babies take naps, but how about toddlers? Do/did yours take naps every day and for how long at a time? What age should they stop taking naps?

My daughter took naps until she was 2, when her baby brother was born. My son still takes naps and he's 2 and a half. I usually put him down for a nap right after lunch and he sleeps for a good hour. I am thinking about ending his nap times because he's having trouble sleeping at night and waking up in the middle of the night, but he gets grumpy if he doesn't nap.
I think around age 2.5 is a good age to stop taking naps. Especially if they have trouble sleeping at night or going to bed at night. My son willingly takes naps and I enjoy the time while he's asleep, but bedtime is becoming more difficult now.

Same here and also if she skips nap she fells asleep to a chair at 5pm:/
