You should have phrased it, "What is the importance of the joints in the skeletal system?" Well you use joints all the time if you don't know that... I will give you an example of why it's so important. If you only had bones without any joints. You would not be able to bend, or twist. You would be EXTREMELY stiff. It would probably be nearly impossible for you to move. Also you would not be able to play Video Games because you have to bend your fingers or twist and rotate them.

The reason muscles are so important to your skeletal system is because they help your bones move. If we didn't have muscles we wouldn't be able to move our body.

the skeletal system does not "make us move" but it provides the framework for the muscular system,this works in tandem(both systems together) with the skeletal system to give us mobility

Somewhat. Muscles (muscular system) pull on bones by contracting, so in a sense it is the bones that move your body, but just indirectly.
