Paper height charts, although cheap to buy, can often tear and curl off the walls before the children have had time to grow and make their observations, but if you are looking for an inexpensive alternative you might want to consider Asco's rubberwood height chart (right). This chart can measure children from 60 to 150cm tall and has animal designs along one side, priced 10.95.
