In winter I get up at night And dress by yellow candle-light. In summer quite the other way, I have to go to bed by day. . I have to go to bed and see The birds still hopping on the tree, Or hear the grown-up people’s feet Still going past me in the street. . And does it not seem hard to you, When all the sky is clear and blue, And I should like so much to play, To have to go to bed by day? .I want to play!

Yah, there’s that “Goldilocks Age”, not too young, not too old. Old enough to do what you want, and young enough to still enjoy it!
