The little man just came into the world, and it has weighed and measured! Each of us is a metric indicating growth at birth, usually about 50-55 centimeters. How to capture and keep growing up crumbs?
Our mothers and grandmothers did growth mark every year, on the day of birth of the baby, and then a teenager and, on doorpost, and often, even during the repair, this part of the doorway was inviolable and not I paint over. For correct and accurate measuring the growth of the childin every children's clinic were equipped with special devices, the upper part of which is to be kept vertically.

The most popular character for Stadiometer - giraffe, because he is very tall. Usually the scale is not more than 150 centimeters, but you can extend the line to 2 meters, the kid knew why you need to eat well. Print a black-and-white giraffe on the printer by dividing the image into several parts. Paint a picture with the whole family, put a mark mom growth, dads and grandparents.
