Anyone who has crossed time zones knows jet lag is not fun. It is particularly difficult and confusing for kids. It is hard to conceptualize the idea of losing or gaining hours. It is a fun math problem though. Is a day always 24 hours? Can it be less? More? Is it possible to skip a day? Lose a day completely? It is probably best to think about this after you have fully recuperated from jet lag though!
