My 3 year old daughter has been kissing and wanting to sleep naked with her teddy. I was wondering if this is normal or if I should be doing something to stop her from doing it?

Is there a reason you believe it is a problem, why is she wanting to be naked ?

I'm not sure if it's a problem. She only does it at home when she is going to bed.

I doubt that the kissing of the teddy bear and wanting to be naked are related. My son likes to take his clothes off and run around. That's just kids. Your daughter is far too young for it to be a sexual thing. Its just her being a kid. I wouldn't worry too much about it if she is out of diapers at night.

I would stop it now! Why not teach her right now while she's small that she has to wear her clothing. Not saying it means anything, but it will be a problem that you will have to address sooner or later.

My son sleeps without underwear, refuses to wear them. I think it's all on personal outlook on this one. I would only be concerned if you think someone may be giving your child these ideas. If not, then let it be until they're at an age when it makes sense for them not to be naked in bed.

That makes sense. She only does it at bed time and I'm pretty sure she's not getting the idea to do it from anyone. She always gets dressed before leaving her bedroom as well.
