Changing the clock allows for more daylight at certain times of day. Rather than have it bright and shinny at 5am in the spring they move the clocks forward to give the end of the day like from 6:30-7:30pm that hour of light. Also in the winter when there is not enough light at 7 am and elementary school kids walk to school in the dark, they take that hour back from the evening and move clocks back an hour so the suns up when the school bell rings at 7:30-8am.
