When a child's bone bends under stress, it may crack like a green stick, rather than break completely. The flexibility of children's bones also allows them to absorb more energy before fracturing.

Why children have more flexible joints than adult?
They have more flexible joints because the younger children are the less their bones and joints have formed. Because they are so unformed, the bones are also able to stretch. If you don't practice as you grow older the bones and joints form fully and grow stronger and you lose your flexibility. After this it is harder to become flexible. On the other hand because your bones and joints are not formed properly yet they not only are flexible but can also break easily and then heal quickly too. It's ironic. You can bend incredibly, but break easily, and then you heal easily.
