Guide to Personalized Kids Growth Charts

Charts for measuring the development of your child from infancy, have been common in the medical practice for generations. They are used to compare the development of height and weight of the child to a normalized national standard. This way, any departures from the norm can be identified right away. Medical Growth Charts allow practitioners and parents both to measure the progress of the weight and height of the child. These charts are very practical and serve an excellent purpose, but there are far more attractive charts that both educate and decorate the nursery and kids rooms.

Poster Charts

Childrens growth charts are designed today to beautify the nursery and the kids rooms. They are fanciful and often contain themes to entertain children like birds, animals, bugs, dinosaurs, and flowers. Poster charts are very economical. Fastened to the wall, they are definitely a step above etching the wall or door jam with penciled marks that disappear with the first cleaning. Bright and cheerful though these can be, they are just paper and do not last as long as canvas or plasticized cotton. Constant marking and rubbing will eventually wear and tear the poster so that inevitably, you will need to replace it. Also, some come in a full sheet that requires you to cut it in half to get the complete length of the chart.

Canvas Kids Growth Charts

Quality childrens growth charts made from canvas are a very durable and attractive solution for any nursery or kids room. Made from 100% top quality stretched canvas, they invite children to touch their surface which can be easily wiped clean. It is important that kids be encouraged to explore and not feel restricted in their personal environment. Parents do not have to worry about rips and tears. The information that these charts log is safe for the duration of the need to measure your child's height.

Canvas charts are designed to be more than just a measuring stick. Because they last, they are created to be fun and whimsical pieces of artwork to enhance any nursery and childrens room. With a full selection of styles, colors, and themes, canvas kids growth charts provide a functional décor of beauty and imagination. They generally range in size from 12" x 42" to 5 feet in height.
