Daylight Saving Time ends today for a lot of my pals in Europe and it ends next Sunday for those people in North American states and provinces that observe Daylight Saving Time.

And ideally, my kids will take benefit of the “extra” hour of time for sleeping next Saturday night.

The Telegraph has a 90 2nd description of Daylight Saving Time. The video doesnt have any narration so it can be watched without sound.
