A little over 3 ft. Unfortunately, my two-year-old is past that.

Thought it would be too good to be true! Thanks expat

My dd was 1m exactly when she turned 3 and she was quite a bit above average (just looked in her red book)

My DD's 2y9m 25th centile for height and she's only 90cm.
Does that help?

Three foot, three inches

cece · 18/03/2006 21:28

100 cm

Blandmum · 18/03/2006 21:33

cece · 18/03/2006 21:36

LOL

Oliviab · 18/03/2006 21:43

About this high.

Passionflower · 18/03/2006 22:30

DD2 is 98cm and has just turned 4. She is on 50th centile if that's any help Smile.

ds 2.3 is 3ft & 1in

HRHQueenOfQuotes · 19/03/2006 22:10

but sometimes you find the things they measure them with are wrong - DS1 got onto 3 rides in one place we went to, but not onto another 2 - yet they were all had the same height restriction Shock!

Hulababy · 19/03/2006 22:10

DD is 3y11m (4 on 5 April) and she is 103cm. Measured her this week!

dinny · 19/03/2006 22:16

dd is four in May and is 107cm.

taller than average, I think. under 1m prob a 2.5 yo..?

loobywoof · 19/03/2006 22:46

DS is 3.4 and is 93cm. He is short though - age 2-3 trousers are way too long for him but we need to buy 3-4 for his tummy!

Tommy · 19/03/2006 23:04

DS2 is 2.7 and he is 88cm. I think he's pretty average Grin

Nome · 19/03/2006 23:41

ds was 103cm on his third birthday - he is a giraffe though...

Hulababy · 20/03/2006 19:40

Just looked at growth chart things from red book. I only have the girl's charts though. At 103cm (when barefoot) at 3y11m DD is just under the 75th centile.

According the the girl's chart:

25th centile = 100cm at 4y2m
50th centile = 100cm at 3y9m
75th centile = 100cm at 3y5m

I'd say anywhere between about 3 and 4 1/2 (dd is the latter, tiny in her class and about a metre). However you may find that not many rides are available to under 1 m anyway. There is normally a measure at the start of each queue or staff checking.

Kelly1978 · 21/03/2006 11:18

ds is nearly 4 and 103cms. agree with lizs though, there won't be a lot for under 1m.

Hulababy · 21/03/2006 18:05

Which theme park is it?

Mercy · 21/03/2006 18:36

dd is 5 next month and is only 103 cm
