Most parents are concerned about how healthy their kids are. We've all heard of the Body Mass Index (BMI), but the calculators are usually just for adults. I found one that was made for kids on the site Health Key.

They state, "...This tool can be used for children ages 2 through 19. Be cautious if you use this tool or any height and weight charts to assess your child's growth after he or she reaches puberty. Check with your doctor if you have questions."

As I've said in previous articles, never go by just one source or calculator. But this looks like a good one to use to start tracking your child's growth through their BMIClick here to see an interactive tool..
