Believe it or not, there are 206 bones in the fully grown body. Bones are very important along with muscles, tendons, and other body tissues we need to be able to walk, run and play. Bones are also the key area where blood is made in the body. Sometimes, when enough pressure is placed against one of the bones in your body, it will break and hurt quite a lot. Don't worry because bones can heal themselves if they are placed in a cast (which keeps the broken bones from moving). It takes several weeks for a broken bone to heal and the length of time to heal depends on which bone you break.

BITES - A bite is when an insect or an animal either breaks through or grabs your skin with their stinger or teeth. At the very least, these bites are unpleasant and can hurt a lot depending on what bites you. If it is an insect that bites you, scratching may lead to an infection. The best thing to do is ask a grown-up to put ice on it to relieve the sting and itching, and to use other lotions or remedies.
