Description
This dinosaur height chart turns a plain stretch of wall into a cheerful record of how tall your child is growing. Made from paper, it measures 28.5cm wide and 115cm long. It carries seven dinosaurs, each in its own coloured panel on a soft cream background: a tyrannosaurus at the top, then a pterodactyl, stegosaurus, triceratops, diplodocus and corythosaurus, with an ankylosaurus at the bottom. The panels run in muted lilac, sky blue, mustard yellow and green, and each dinosaur is named in bold capitals, so the whole chart reads like a page from an old natural history book.
It suits a child's bedroom, nursery or playroom, or a hallway wall the family passes every day. The scale runs up both sides, in feet and inches to 4.5 feet on one side and in centimetres to 135cm on the other, so you can read a height whichever way you prefer. We love that every stage has a dinosaur beside it. That gives a young measurer something to aim for as they climb from ankylosaurus height towards the tyrannosaurus at the top.
A sheet of paper stickers comes with the chart. The round ones have a little pointer and are decorated with fossil skulls, ammonites, claws and footprints for marking a height. The rectangular labels come in matching colours for writing a name, a date or a note. To put it up, fix the chart to the wall 30cm up from the floor, so its lowest mark starts at the right height. As it is paper, keep it in a dry room away from splashes and dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth. It makes a thoughtful present that keeps earning its place on the wall as the stickers creep higher year by year.
