As a preschool owner, I get asked often about sleep and naps for children ages 0-5. At Upstream Learning, we do have a rest time each day in every classroom. In the Kindergarten Ready classroom (ages 4-5), the nap time is shorter, however we do find it to be an imperative down time for success in the afternoon hours. In the article attached, read about the recommendations for amount of sleep in a 24 hour period for your age child. There are also great ideas for how to create good sleeping patterns and transition times for bed routines!
