WHY TRACK YOUR CHILD'S HEIGHT?
First off, it’s fun!
Kids love to see how much they’ve grown! They love the fun of standing next to their very own personalized growth chart and being measured by mom or dad. Seeing if they’ve grown ½ an inch or 2 inches is a thrilling experience for any little one. Or for some little ones, the thrill is to see if they are as tall as the hippo or owl or elephant on the growth chart.
Make it fun for them by measuring their height consistently. Measure on their ½ and quarterly birthdays as well as Holidays. Some moms we know even like to measure monthly. Involve other siblings by measuring them at the same time — or measure your child’s favorite stuffed animals or dolls too. You can also track milestones in conjunction with their height on their growth chart — when they were first potty trained, when they had their first t-ball game, when they learned to ride a bike, etc.
It’s healthy to measure!
Tracking your child’s height will help ensure proper growth for them — you’ll be able to make sure your little one is on the right track. Children grow the most during their first year of life and it begins to slow between 1 and 2. After 2 your child’s height should grow consistently until they hit their adolescence growth spurt.
Capture childhood!
Our little ones grow so fast…one moment your rocking an infant and the next moment your 4 year old is embarrassed to kiss you in front of his friends at preschool. Your personalized growth chart allows you to document and preserve your little one’s childhood. Capture childhood – it only comes by once!
To measure accurately:
— Make sure your child is barefoot
— Stand them against their growth chart with feet flat
— Keep their arms at their sides and shoulders level
— When you are measuring, make sure your eyes are the same level as your child’s head — you’ll be on your knees

Happy Measuring!

WAYS TO HANG CANVAS GROWTH CHARTS
Our canvas growth charts make a terrific personalized, thoughtful gift for any new mom, baby shower gift or child’s birthday.
Printed on thick, matte finish, cotton canvas our modern growth charts are gifts that will be treasured for years. The bright vivid owls, trains, butterflies, and dinosaurs are richly colored, as they are printed with the highest quality, eco friendly, archival inks. This custom craftsmanship creates a long lasting growth chart keepsake. Canvas growth charts feature aluminum corner grommets.
First things first …
Choose a wall to hang your growth chart from. Hang the bottom 24” (2 feet) above the floor. Wherever you hang your chart from, avoid anywhere where the canvas will be exposed to long periods of direct sunlight.
You have lots of options for hanging your personalized growth chart. Here are a few that we think are cute.
Hooks
3M makes a lot of great “no hole” products. These hooks are plastic, but are made to look like metal. They run around $4 each and are the perfect size for our aluminum grommets — even better you don’t have to use a hammer, nails, screws, etc.
Ribbon
To make the hooks cuter, tie ribbon to the grommets and hang the ribbon from the hooks. You can choose a ribbon that matches the design like we did here with the baby blue ribbon or the ribbon could create a pop of color if you used red or orange.
Wooden Character Hooks
3M makes little clear plastic hooks that we attached to these little wooden characters — we found them at a local craft store for about $1 each.
We used the 3M stickers to attach the characters to the wall and the hooks to the characters. What a fun way to hang your growth chart and continue the theme of your child’s room or nursery.
Here are some answers to some frequently asked questions about our personalized growth charts:
What should I use to write on my canvas growth chart?
To mark your child’s height and age on your canvas growth chart, we recommend a fine-tip permanent marker.
How should I care for my growth chart?
If you need to clean your canvas growth chart, you can wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth. Place your growth chart such to avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
What if my canvas growth chart wrinkles or my child folds it?
If your canvas wrinkles or your little one gets carried away playing with their growth chart (our little emmy loves to hide behind hers and play hide and seek), you can gently iron the back of the growth chart at a low temperature.
What if the edges of my canvas growth chart curl?
As our premium canvas is made primarily of cotton and natural fabrics sometimes have a tendency to curl slightly, we recommend ironing the backside of the canvas
