New research suggests that babies and toddlers who take frequent naps may have smaller vocabularies and poorer memory and thinking skills.
Parents around the world often worry about the sleep habits of their young children, concerned that they might be getting either too little or too much sleep.
However, a recent study indicates that the frequency of napping in children reflects their individual cognitive needs, and reducing naps for those with poorer cognitive skills will not improve brain development.
The study, led by Dr Teodora Gliga from the University of East Anglia (UEA), revealed that children who have a smaller vocabulary or lower scores in measures of executive function tend to nap more frequently.
