They are still growing so the ends of the bones have growth plates known as epiphyseal plates. Adults have an epiphyseal line where the plate once was.
The growth occurs toward the shaft of the bone.

Children's bones tend to bend much more than adults' bones before they break. When children's bones do break they heal faster than adult bones.
