Daylight saving time begins tomorrow. It means that all of us are going to get an hour less sleep, one precious hour that impacts our daily routine. This hour is proved very important to us adults, we finish much work within an hour. However, it is even more so for the children. Researchers have found that children may "feel the effects of losing a single hour of sleep for up to one week." [1] Now it seems that we do not have a lot to complain for comparing to children.
