What's the problem exactly? This isn't a Buhari or Nigerian thing. Many schools abroad incorporate such fun activities into nursery education a lot. Anything that makes the idea of schooling fun, safe and healthy is OK. A day set out to play seems fun. I'm sure most people would find it cool if it were a US school doing this. The other day, we read about a Chinese school that has adjustable chairs so that pupils can sleep, and front page people were calling out Nigeria for creating "work-only" environment for our kids. Now a Nigerian school is doing something fun, and people are calling them out for not knowing what proper education should be like. Nigerians just hate anything Nigerian.
Pyjamas is not to be worn out of the home. What kind of fun is this

That's exactly why they chose it; to make the school environment more homelike for the kids. These are nursery school kids. They can wear anything anywhere.

Read my detailed response:

One of the major goals of nursery schools is to get the kids interested in what's ahead of them and schools are obliged to do this by any means morally acceptable. In this case, the idea is to make the school environment fun on that specific day. By asking the kids to put on PJ's which they only wear in the comfort of thier homes, they aim to to make the school more home-like and reduce the distinction between thier cozy homes and the the academic/formal school settings dreaded by some of them. Such things work like magic on kids that are afraid of school settings.

This is just for a day and it's not even uncommon. What is the fuss about? Will the kid be exposed or embarrassed? Do normal school uniforms cover them more than PJ's? If the final goal is achieved, based on what exactly are you criticizing the approach? Just give me one logical reason. Because it is called PJ? Or because it's done in Nigeria? Please, y'all should relax.

Anything to exploit the parents. Most of these school owners are clueless about how a school should be run

Nothing wrong with this, it is a practical way of teaching kids norms and ethics, the school is trying to teach on sleeping and wares to the kids.
I can't understand you.

You guys school owners don't seem to have any 21st century ideas to better this our 3rd country o

So many frustrated Nigerians on nairaland.
What’s wrong with pyjamas day ?
Someone said is that what we sent them there to learn. Rubbish, all the learning that they’ve been teaching all these years, where has it landed Nigeria ?

You don't know a thing about the psychology of nursery education. One of the major goals of nursery schools is to get the kids interested in what's ahead of them and schools are obliged to do this by any means morally acceptable.

Then they shld hv at least carried their beds & mattresses along 4 adequate fun & proper preparation 4 d future!

There's nothing abt pyjamas they oughtta know dt common sense won't thoroughly furnish them wit in due time!

What an overt exhibition of misisplaced priority!


In all, let everyone try stay #OBIdient by all means if we truly wanna see d emergence of a #NewNigeria2023!

Misplaced priority? So what is the priority? Advanced Physics? And who told you nursery schools don't have beds and mattresses? I think people against this idea are those who didn't have the opportunity to attend primal nursery schools and that is why comfort looks strange to y'all. They're laying the foundation here and there's nothing like "in due time" because kids form thier perspective of school at an early stage. It reduces the stress of trying to do that later. Anything to make the journey smoother for your baby is acceptable, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with a baby putting in a PJ anywhere. They change thier clothes in school on a normal day, so don't project adult reasoning to babies. Like I said, you don't any idea what nursery education is about.

Those ones ain't too young 2 be taken 2 lab or tech workshop 2 research & learn somtin better dt can benefit both them & d society in d nearest future!

Or, isn't dt what d advanced countries are doing wit their kids?

And b4 d Whites bring their kids out 2 wear pyjamas 4 fun, they hv done enough lab & tech works, and thus want d kids 2 catch fun & relax their brains a little!


But, here in our clime, is d reverse of d abv not d case? Huh?

At a tender age, u wil see those kids in sane climes carrying out laboratory experiments, mixing chemicals & all, whereas in our own clime, u may not start doing all dt stuff until u grow beards or breasts!

Lol... really, bro? With all due respect, I think you're cool and sincere person but with little exposure. Sir, every single thing you're seeing in that picture is a toy. I live in the so called advanced country myself and I can tell you that for sure. Nursery school children don't do tech or science research anywhere. That is not the objective of education at that phase. In fact, the school would be sanctioned if they let children of that age anywhere near a lab. No parents would subject thier children to that cause would be taking thier childhood away from them. Children discover the world by playing, that's how nature has made it.

Many nursery schools in Nigeria have such toys that aim to build the kids' interest in arts and sciences. Like I said earlier, the whole idea is to get then interested in any way morally possible. Incorporating fun into the learning process and making toy versions of some of these lab items and art tools are some of the ways to achieve that.
