Depends: A lot depends on the age of the child. The younger the child the higher the heart rate. 0-1 years, 100-120. 1-5 yrs, 90-110. 5-12yrs , 60-90. 12-adult 60-90 depending upon level of fitness. These are resting heart rates.

Depends on their age: Generally speaking, the younger a child/infant is, the quicker their heart rate is.
