Child broke her arm in 1st grade, then again in 3rd grade. now in the 8th grade and it's been over 3 years. is it safe to try gymnastics or anything?

Broken bones: Repeated broken bones are more likely an active child or an unlucky one! The benefits of participating in gymnastics are great, and weight bearing exercise will actually strengthen her bones.
