    What you need to know

    On average, a child will be able to take off at least a few articles of clothing at around 24 months. A few children’s might be able to undress themselves earlier, as soon as 18 months, while other healthy kids may not be able to undress until much later. Like all other milestones, undressing is something that kids may begin doing sooner or later than average, depending on their personalities and interests. This is approximately the average age at which kids begins undressing themselves completely, so it's clear that your child outgrew the delay. On average, a child can undress themselves entirely sometime between 30 and 40 months of age.

    Checking for developmental delays
