  21. Taking care of our bones • Protect those skull bones (and your brain inside!) by wearing a helmet for bike riding and other sports. • If you play sports like football, soccer, lacrosse, or ice hockey, always wear all the right equipment. • Strengthen your skeleton by drinking milk and eating other dairy products (like low-fat cheese or frozen yogurt). They all contain calcium, which helps bones harden and become strong. • Be active!
