My sense of hobbit and human ages/development has always been the same as Child's -- it you're a 25 year old human, you're a 25 year old hobbit. Hobbits just seem to take the time they need to really 'grow up' -- unlike humans ("a hasty folk").
And, yes, to Fordogrim pretty much everyone on this trip is a "child"!!
F.H.
