ABSTRACT
The Nigerian parents assessment of the effectiveness of pre-school education centres around the speed and the extent to which their pre-school children master the academic skills. This inappropriate index of academic success has resulted in the predominance of drills and memorisation as the commonest feature of the pre-school classes. Play, which is one of the best methods through which 'the pre-school age children learn, has been relocated to a state of recess or total abandonment in the nursery schools.
Most Nigerian pre-school teachers are not aware of the effective ways of maximising children's learning through play. They are not aware that in a child's play situation, the child abstracts the significant elements of his environment and organises them in meaningful order, that the spontaneous expression of thought and feeling of the child in this play situation is an educational activities.
This study was therefore designed to examine whether the use of socio-dramatic play technique will improve the verbal and numerical problem-solving abilities of Nigerian nursery school children.
