Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Children with precocious puberty experience early growth spurts because of the abnormally early rise in sex hormone levels in their bodies. Initially this causes these children to grow taller than other kids their age, but their skeletons mature more rapidly.
Detailed explanation-2: -Kids actually tend to grow a bit faster in the spring than during other times of the year! A major growth spurt happens at the time of puberty, usually between 8 to 13 years of age in girls and 10 to 15 years in boys. Puberty lasts about 2 to 5 years.
