Document Summary
Increase 3 kilograms and 5-8 cm per year: proportions become less top-heavy. Many children become picky eaters: this may be adaptive, almost all children still eat enough for growth and health. Most trade their afternoon nap for more nighttime sleep at about age 4. Sleep comes without too much trouble for most, but about 20-35% have sleep issues: some have trouble settling down if parents have not established a consistent bedtime routine, others have sleep disturbances. Nightmares: vivid, frightening dreams occurring toward morning, that usually wake the dreamer: occasional nightmares are normal. Sleepwalking: when children are in deep sleep and do not awaken but get out of bed and walk: best to wake the child and return them to bed. Bedwetting occurs in about 10-15% of 5-year-olds. It is important to eliminate feelings of guilt and shame: punishment increases stress and can make it worse, a conditioning alarm system is often helpful as treatment.
