Babies are born with 94 more bones than adults. This is because many of our bones grow together. A quarter of our bones are in our feet. In order to keep our bones happy and healthy, we need to get enough exercise and calcium . Sometimes when we have an accident, we can break a bone. The broken pieces grow together again to form a new bone. Sometimes this new bone is stronger!
calcium: n. something that is found in bones and teeth, and in small quantities in milk and other foods
