I was just wondering what the average weight for a 5 year old boy is?
Thanks

Depends whether he's British or American. If British, I would say about 3 stone - if American I reckon it would be about 11 stone (154lb)

This is a very hard question to answer hunni, the reason I say this is because I have a 6 yr old girl - When I look at all the kids in the school line in the playground the kids are all different heights and shapes.....
My little girl is tall but some of the kids look like toddlers aswell as some of the being tall like my kid.
You will know yourself if your kid is a healthy weight!

Now this is why we are supposed to go to the health visitor.
Don,t worry i never do and don,t think many others do either.
My son turned 5 in October and last time i weighed him which were just before christmas he were 3st 11lb. He,s not fat and sometimes i think he looks skinny but he is a big lad for his age.
I,d say anything between 3 and 4 stone for a 5 year old.

When my 2 eldest boys were 5 they weighed 2st 10.5lbs and 3st. They are both a bit under the average height but tracking their percentile charts then their heights and weights are well matched. You can take your child along any time to get them measured. I tend now to take mine as close to birthdays as I can.

It totally depends on their height.
In Scotland we have a red book that you get for all babies from your health visitor which tells the weight range a child should be for their height.
