News From the Children’s Room

Time to change your clocks!

This Sunday, November 6, 2022, the clocks “fall”  back.  Be sure to change your clocks back one hour.  Why do we change the clocks anyway? To put it simply, we change the clocks to make better use of natural daylight in the morning. During the summer time, we borrow an hour of daylight from the morning and shift it to the evening to reduce our energy consumption.
