Is there a biological/physiological reason why children have so much energy? I was thinking, surely there must be a scientific explanation, and could this be replicated in adult humans?

Well, they don’t. Take a 10 yr old on a longer hike and you’ll quickly realize they are like fast-burning matches. They appear to have a lot of energy, but it’s mostly psychological (they scream, shout, jump, run around) but they cannot sustain it for a longer period of time. They do this because playing allows them to learn and they have to learn a lot when they are young.
