During children’s growth and development, there are indeed certain differences in height between boys and girls. These differences are particularly evident at age 4. For boys, a height of 110 cm is considered highly ideal, falling precisely within the average height range for boys of the same age. Typically, a height between 105 cm and 115 cm is regarded as normal for 4-year-old boys. In contrast, the height standard for girls is slightly lower, with a range of 100 cm to 110 cm generally considered normal. Therefore, whether a child is a boy or a girl, as long as their height falls within this reasonable range, their height development can be considered standard, and excessive concern is unnecessary.
