The pace of the story changes every time the mood of the children changes.

Explanation:

The pace of the story changes every time the mood of the children changes. A perfect example of this is at the beginning of the story. The first paragraphs are slightly lengthy and greatly detailed to show the mood of the current situation. Since all the kids are stuck indoor on a blistering hot day, the mood is dragged and allows the reader to understand the children's situation.

However, once mother permits the children to exit, the mood changes to a more exciting and thrilling tone. This is also when the story’s pace changes. Read the following line:

“The children, too, felt released. They too began tumbling, shoving, pushing against each other, frantic to start.”

This line allows the reader to relate to the characters and understand their emotions. Clearly, we read that the children are moving so fast they begin tumbling one another frantically.

Another good clue that represents a change in pace is when the kids share this interaction:

“Let’s play hide-and-seek.”

“Who’ll be It?”

“You be It.”

“Why should I? You be——”

“You’re the eldest——”

“That doesn’t mean——”

Here, it’s almost as if the children are moving at such a fast pace, they begin to speak over one another. It’s written in such a way that the reader almost feels like they’re a part of the story, experiencing the chaotic bickering between the children.
