Is 126 beats per minute high for a 5 year old child?

A heart rate of 126 beats per minute (bpm) is generally considered within the normal range for a 5-year-old child, as typical resting heart rates for children aged 3 to 5 can range from 80 to 120 bpm. However, factors like activity level, excitement, or anxiety can temporarily elevate heart rates. If the child is at rest and consistently shows a high heart rate, it may be worth consulting a pediatrician for further evaluation.
