Corrected sentences:

Your pulse is the beat of your heart that you can feel in your wrist and neck. A child's heart beats 80–100 times a minute.

What this means and how to check your pulse (easy steps):

  1. Pulse is the same as your heartbeat — you can feel it.
  2. To find it, use your index and middle fingers (not your thumb).
  3. Press gently on the inside of your wrist (on the thumb side) or on the side of your neck next to the windpipe.
  4. When you feel taps, count how many you feel in 15 seconds. Then multiply that number by 4 to get beats per minute.
  5. If you are running or playing, your pulse will be higher; when you are resting, it will be closer to 80–100 beats per minute.

Note: I only corrected the grammar and kept the same number range you wrote (80–100). If you want, I can also update the number to a typical range for a 7-year-old (resting rates can vary).
