The pattern of light and dark follows a classic "sine" wave. At the Solstices, the amount of daylight hardly changes at all from a week before the solstice to the day of the solstice, and it begins to swing (slowly!) in the week following the solstice. Around the Equinoxes, and depending on your latitude, the change in the duration of daylight can vary by several minutes from one day to the next.
If you want precise numbers for your latitude, go to the U.S. Naval Observatory's web site and calculate the sunrise/sunset table for an entire year at your location. See the link below.

In winter, it generally gets darker about 2-3 minutes earlier each day, while in summertime, it gets lighter about 2-3 minutes later each day. These changes in daylight are due to the tilt of the Earth's axis and the resulting changes in the length of daylight hours.

Why does winter in Africa summer in America?
Winter in Africa and summer in America occur at the same time due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. The Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the Sun during summer, causing warmer temperatures, while the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, resulting in cooler temperatures during its winter season. This causes the opposite seasons to occur in the two regions.
