30、g events，besides，they need to do their homework，then the time theyll feel sleepy is in the classroom. Your child needs free time. So if youre filling up that after school time，then its during the day theyre going to be taking a break.”Professor Claire McDermott agrees that theres a lot to be gained
31、from sometimes putting those scheduled lessons and activities away.“Relaxing time is important for children. Its time just to do the things they want to do.
