Working parents will not be surprised to hear that a study has found they only get 90 minutes to themselves every day, which could be solved by treating their children to activity day camps.
The Co-operative Food Survey spoke to 3,000 parents who have jobs and discovered that the average one got out of bed at 6:42 GMT and did not feel their heads hit the pillow until 22:45 GMT.
During their hectic days they spent eight hours and 12 minutes at work, 55 minutes in the shower, eating breakfast and dressing, 47 minutes making sure their kids were ready for nursery or school and one hour doing school runs and the commute to work.
Relaxation was restricted to only an hour and a half by the time preparing and eating dinner, family time and housework were factored into the day.
In addition, a study by Persimmon Homes showed that parents are too busy to take up activities with their kids.
