Honolulu gets 10 hours and 50 minutes of daylight on the day of the winter solstice.

Days are not smaller, they are shorter. This is because the earth spins with its axis tilted and in the winter the northern hemisphere is pointing away from the Sun - this makes Northern days shorter and Southern days longer.
in the summer solctice the days are longer and its warmer. in the winter solstice the night comes earlier and lasts shorter. it is also colder unless you live in Florida like me when the weather changes year round.
In the northern hemisphere, USA and UK included, during Spring the days become longer and the nights become shorter. Conversely, in the southern hemisphere, Australia, and South Africa included , during the same period the days become shorter and the nights become longer. Depending on which side of the Equator you are on , the seasons and daylight hours are reversed. During Autumn (Fall)(northern hemisphere), the whole process is reversed in both hemispheres.

Yes, the days in the wintertime are shorter and shorter.
After the Vernal Equinox the days get shorter as winter approaches.
Days get shorter and nights get longer until the winter solstice, at which point the days become longer and the nights become shorter.

Well the days are actually the same amount of time but the sunlight is only out in the winter for a shorter time because the earth has rotated.
the days are shorter in the winter
because sun spin on its axes quick .
they don't want to because they want longer days and shorter nights.or longer nights and shorter days
there is less daylight in the winter
Days are not smaller, they are shorter. This is because the earth spins with its axis tilted and in the winter the northern hemisphere is pointing away from the Sun - this makes Northern days shorter and Southern days longer.
Days are currently getting shorter in all of the northern hemisphere because we are past the summer solstice continuing to the winter solstice. The tilt of the earth causes days to get longer in the summer and shorter in the winter. The further north or south you are the more extreme these changes are. (near the poles there is a period of a few months where the sun never rises in winter, and never sets in summer)
The tilt of the Earth causes the difference in the length of night and day. As you move to the North, days become longer in summer, shorter in winter. Greenland is very far North, and the days become shorter and shorter as they near the winter solstice (around 21 December).
