Abstract

Abstract. Each age period of childhood is characterized by its own biological characteristics. This process is manifested by a change in morphofunctional development under the influence of external factors. Young children are characterized by rapid rates of physical development, neuropsychic and physical development; low resistance to meteorological conditions and the environment compared to older children. In 2019-2022, an anthropometric study was carried out on 210 children of both sexes under the age of 6 years from state kindergartens in Tashkent. The height, weight, chest and head circumference of each child were measured.
