All About Bones In The Human Body: Curious Human Skeleton Facts For Kids
Did you know that bone is a living tissue?
Did you know that a little baby has more bones than you? That’s right, a baby is born with 300 bones which eventually become 206 when the baby grows up because some bones fuse together to form a single bone.

In general, an adult human body consists of 206 bones but some people might even have up to 213 bones.

Our skull, the vertebral column, and the rib cage are collectively known as the axial skeleton whereas the appendicular skeleton comprises the shoulder and pelvic girdles and the bones of our upper and lower limbs.
