How Tall Are You?

I've been wanting one of these for a couple of years. I just never got around to
it. A few months ago I finally got around to actually buying the piece of
wood that I needed for it, and this week I managed to finish our new
height ruler. The kids were quite excited to see how tall they all are. I 
found some of the kids old medical papers and added their old heights in
as well, just so they could see how much they've grown.

    1. Hi Karina! I printed the numbers onto paper, rubbed pencil on the back and then traced the numbers on my board (pencil side down) Then I just took a sharpie marker and filled them in. I used a ruler and the sharpie for the lines.
