🧠 FUN FACT FRIDAY!
🦴 DID YOU KNOW?
BABIES HAVE MORE BONES THAN ADULTS! 👶
A newborn has about 270–300 bones, while an adult has 206.
So, where did the “extra” bones go? 🤔
They didn’t disappear—they fused together! As we grow, some smaller bones gradually join to form larger bones, especially in areas like the skull, spine, and pelvis.
Our skeleton also keeps changing through ossification and bone remodeling, even into adulthood! ✨
Your bones are growing, changing, and rebuilding with you! 💚🔬
