Abstract: Measuring bedding articles and methods for measuring the length of a person's body or a portion thereof that enable such measurement while the person is lying down, thereby allowing the measuring of children or infants who cannot yet stand or the measuring of adults or adolescents who may be unable to stand for some reason. In some exemplary embodiments, the measuring bedding article comprises a measuring blanket or a measuring crib sheet. The measuring bedding article includes a measuring aid integral therewith and having end markings defining a distance therebetween, a plurality of markings between such end markings that define smaller distance increments, and a plurality of numerals that enable the making of measurements. The measuring article also includes a recordation label that allows multiple measurements and the corresponding dates thereof to be recorded for subsequent review and/or analysis that may be indicative of physical development or decline.
