Not napping

My 2.5 years old toddler doesn’t like to take nap though she is tired and sleepy. However, she sleeps through the night for 10 to 11 hours. But will lack of nap affect her development and health ?

It shouldn’t affect development but it’ll cause her to be over stimulated and too tired. A 2.5 year old should be napping about 2 hours during the day on top of the 10-11 hours at night. Sometimes, we have to insist even if they don’t like it. They will eventually fall asleep. 😅
