How tall will I be? That might be a question kids have when they get older.
More often though, parents wonder how tall their toddler or preschooler might be when they grow up.
It's a natural question for parents and kids, and besides being a little fun to try and predict how tall a child might be, it can also help to make sure a child is growing normally.
