Child Growth Charts and Best Practice Car Seat Stages

The following growth charts help you, as a parent or caregiver, estimate the approximate time when your child will reach certain heights and weights. This will help you know when to start checking the maximum height and weight limits that are printed on the side of your child's car seat. The Best Practice Car Seat Stages are based upon child restraint systems that have an increased height and weight limit so children can remain rear-facing longer, and in 5-point harness seat and booster seat longer, depending on the height & weight limits, to keep them safer.

*These charts were developed from information based on Clinical Growth Charts for Length-for-age and Weight-for-age by the CDC.*These charts were developed from information based on Clinical Growth Charts for Length-for-age and Weight-for-age by the CDC.
