Summer used to feel so long when we were young, this year it ended so quickly.
Is there a scientific explanation for this?

It’s as simple as looking at a ratio.
When you’re 5, a year is 20% of your life.
At 10, a year is 10% of your life.
When you’re 25, that same year is 4% of your life.
At 50, a year is 2% of your life, and if you live to be 100 years old, a year is a very fast 1% of your life.
Add in that at 5 and 10, it’s likely that you’re playing all summer, or vacationing, for a quarter of the year. At 25 and 50, you may have 3-4 weeks of vacation to spread through the year.
