Why bones heal faster in kids?

The bones of normally healthy children are healthier, more pliable, than adults therefore they heal quickly with proper care. As you age, your bones will deteriorate without proper diet.

The real reason bones heal faster in children is because the layer surrounding the bones in the body called the periOSteum, which happens to contain many nerves and capillaries and therefore blood, is thicker in children meaning there is more blood supply to the bone bringing the substances it needs to create more bone or hydroxyapatite to the area of the fracture.
