The maximum height for overhead rings for preschool-age children is?

  1. 48 inches

  2. 60 inches

  3. 72 inches

  4. 84 inches

The correct answer is: 60 inches

Preschool-age children are typically around 3-5 years old, and have an average height of 37-44 inches. Therefore, the maximum height for overhead rings should not exceed 60 inches, as it may be too high for them to safely reach and hold on to. Options A, C, and D would all be incorrect as they are taller than 60 inches, making it challenging for preschool-age children to use them effectively. Additionally, option D, with a height of 84 inches, would be almost double the height of the average preschool-age child, posing a significant safety risk. Therefore, option B, with a height of 60 inches, is the most appropriate choice for overhead rings for preschool-age children.
