About this calculator

What is the Children’s BMI Calculator – Growth Curve?

The children’s BMI calculator calculates a child’s body mass index and compares it to age- and gender-specific growth curves. Children’s BMI is not directly comparable to adult limits.

The calculator is free and works in the browser without registration. FiksuLaskuri offers over 200 calculators.

Calculation Principle

BMI = weight (kg) ÷ height² (m²), compared to age/gender percentile curves.

Enter the information in the calculator fields – the result updates immediately. You can try different values to compare scenarios.

Practical Example

An 8-year-old girl, 30 kg, 130 cm → BMI 17.75. This corresponds to the 50th percentile (normal) in the age group.

This example illustrates a typical situation. Enter your own information to get a personal result.

Tips and Considerations

  • Measure the child’s height in the mornings (height can vary by up to 0.39–0.79 in per day).
  • Also consider growth rate: normal growth (cm/year for the age group) is often more important than a single BMI reading.
  • The growth curves monitored during health check-ups are the most reliable way to track a child’s development.
