Bedtime chart for kids by age

Bedtimes include about 15 minutes to fall asleep. Sleep targets sit inside the American Academy of Sleep Medicine's recommended ranges. Under age 6, the total includes a typical nap, so a child who has dropped their nap needs an earlier bedtime. For your child's exact age and nap, use the kids bedtime calculator.
