Hi!

This is the site of a person who did the same project that you are doing:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=& ... main+cause

You can follow this person’s approach by sending out surveys for people to complete. You can also try collecting data by going t othe hospital and asking if any of the doctors are willing to help you with your project. Some main causes (that I know about) of bone breakage in kids are osteoporosis and sports/tree climbing related accidents.

Hi Ania,
This seems like an interesting project topic. I would suggest gathering data from doctors if they are willing to help you by answering some survey questions. Your local hospital ER room would be a great place to start with interviewing doctors or your local pediatrician's office. A quick online search came up with these websites that might help you in your research.

A simple google search for "child common broken bones" should get you some good results. You might find that there is a connection between child growth and development And the bones that adults/seniors are more likely to break. It might be easier to understand this question if you think about yourself and ask what you or a younger brother or sister are more likely to break than your parents...
Hope that helps
