Traveling between two points of longitude can create changes in human perception of self and environment. Our main goal in this study was to investigate the change in the number of daily activities in children after long journeys between latitudes. Among 17 families, two families with 9-year-old children, one girl and the other boy, were selected from the western and eastern cities of Iran to travel to each other's cities. After traveling between almost two longitudes, the results showed that children's time perception, waking and sleeping time, and more importantly, number of daily activities changes. In this way, the child who had traveled to the east woke up earlier after returning to his permanent place of residence, because he thought that the days were longer and showed more activities during the day than before the travel. These results can be caused by the start time and the amount of energy input to the decision-making system and change the biological clock in such a way that it affects the perception of time and the decision to perform activities during the day. The results of this study can have scientific, educational and therapeutic aspects.
