The precise temporal coupling of slow oscillations (SOs) with spindles has been suggested as a mechanism facilitating this consolidation process in thalamocortical networks. Here, we investigated the development of sleep spindles and SOs and their coordinate interplay by comparing frontal, central, and parietal electroencephalogram recordings during a nap between infants aged 2-3 months ( = 31) and toddlers aged 14-17 months ( = 49).
