How do children grow taller?

The height of children at home is one of the aspects that parents are most concerned about, especially for parents who are not very tall, as the height gene can be inherited. However, some children can supplement nutrition during their development period, develop regular living habits, and do more stretching exercises to promote their height growth. Growing taller quickly during the physical development stage can give your children a head start, because there are many occupations in modern society that require height advantages. So, let’s take a look at how children can grow taller.

1. Physical activities help speed up blood circulation and promote bone growth. Children of the same age and gender who exercise regularly are 4-10 cm taller than those who do not. Let your children keep exercising, such as jogging, skipping rope, dancing, playing basketball, etc.:

①Children: Combine active and passive movements. Active exercise is to help children do some exercises such as lifting their heads, crawling or turning over. Passive exercise is that parents do some baby exercises and massage for their children, which is also beneficial to the growth and development of children.

② Older children: practice running, jumping, bouncing balls, jumping with both legs, skipping rope, trampoline, and single-leg jumping. These are all good exercises for growing taller. But be aware that weightlifting, long-distance running, dumbbells and other exercises are not very conducive to growing taller. You will understand this by looking at the athletes who do these types of exercises at the sports meeting.

2. Ensure that your child gets enough sleep every day and try to let him wake up naturally in the morning. Do not wake up your child too early and do not let your child be a night owl. Create a good sleeping atmosphere for your child when he goes to bed at night and keep the surrounding environment quiet. This will help your child fall asleep faster. Children need 8 to 10 hours of sleep a day to achieve their maximum growth potential. A happy mood is also a catalyst for growth.

If parents blindly supplement their children with excessive nutrition, it will not only fail to make their children grow taller, but will cause health risks such as overnutrition and obesity. As for how children grow taller, what we can change are the acquired factors. Parents can refer to the methods we introduced. Understand the knowledge about children's height growth, so that children can grow taller scientifically and stay away from ignorant obstacles to height growth.
