It depends. 60 pounds is the average weight of 11 year old girls.

But, what is her height? Check out this BMI calculator to find out. Just enter her height and weight and she can find out her ideal weight.

A BMI of between 18.5 and 25 is considered to be within ideal body weight range. A BMI between 25 to 27 is overweight
