Our body has a special liquid called blood. Blood is very important because it carries nutrients, oxygen, and other good things all around our body. When we get a cut, the blood comes out, kind of like when you bite into a juicy strawberry and the juice spills out!

But we do not want to lose too much blood. That is why we need to press on the cut to stop the bleeding. If it is too big, we need to go see a doctor to help us heal.
