Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare casts with cast art versus those without art in children who sustain a fracture of the extremity. The main goals are: * Determine the difference in satisfaction as measured by the visual analog scale for satisfaction between patients treated in a cast with cast customization versus those in a cast with no cast art * Determine the difference in perceived pain scores between patients treated in a cast with cast customization versus those in a case with no cast art Participants will be randomized to one of three groups: one with plain white cast, one with cast of color wrap of choice, and one with custom cast art. Researchers will compare to see the differences in satisfaction and perception of pain based on what cast the study participant receives.
