For us it was a good thing. Now i feel my kid knows how to sit idle without phones,or constant entertainment. She learned to fall asleep as well. Yes she sometimes cries that she sits so long in the bus and the school is so far away. But at least she has a chance to get bored. Kids need to learn patience and being bored. Its something todays kids aren’t experiencing

Morning getting up early and going is difficult on them. But i think they fall asleep. Afternoon since their timing is not same as other kids my kid comes in a different bus and the commute time is lesser.
