The time that a 3 year old should go to bed is between 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM or no later than 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

Most 3 year olds go to bed between the hours of 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM or between the hours of 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

3 year olds need between 10 to 13 hours of sleep including naps during the day.

A bedtime for a 3 year old around these times can help the 3 year old meet their required sleep needs.

You want the 3 year old to sleep at least a minimum of 11.5 hours at night, meaning that the bedtime ideally should fall between the hours of 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM.

My 3 year old goes to bed at least by 7:00 PM to 7:30 PM.

And typical naptimes for a 3 year old are between the hours of 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM.

A naptime around this time helps to maintain a consistent sleep schedule and also prevent overtiredness in the 3 year old.

Although napping too long can interfere with the 3 year olds nighttime sleep so don't let the 3 year old nap too long.

2 hours is the most common length of naps that a 3 year old needs.
