Baby growth charts are a lovely way to record your child getting taller, and make a beautiful addition to a nursery or child's bedroom. They also make a perfect gift.

There are various different types, including fabric, stick-on and wooden, so you can choose the best baby growth chart for your home.

If you have more than one child or are thinking about having more in the future, you often don't need to buy more than one and it's a lovely way to compare heights and check your child's growth pattern in a fun way.

We've picked out 10 gorgeous growth charts so you can ditch the tape measure and make your child's bedroom that little bit more special.
