Likely for the same reason that the furniture shrinks as we get older - the growing itself is what does it.
As we mature, we have longer and longer attention spans. We are able to sit quietly and complete a time consuming task - where as when we were kids, we had short attention spans and so we would flit from activity to activity, getting to do many more things in the same amount of time. I think that creates the illusion of time speeding up for us.

Because, relatively speaking, when you're young and haven't lived very long yet, a period of time like a day is a greater proportion of the time you've lived. When you're older, a day is a relatively minor fraction of the total time you've lived; hence, it seems to fly by.

When you are young you don't pay attention to time. As you get older you are so busy that there doesn't seem enough time in the day.
