SLC26-W5 | Street Business Diaries: Education and Children's Products

‎
To sell to the learned, do I have to be learned? Definitely, I think, to some extent. One who sells books should be able to pronounce those sentences written on the back page, be acquainted with updated editions, and have good communication skills with customers, at least understand the demands, and put the shop in stock of current product to get customers' attention. I went to the street of Nung Udoe and out of 3 stores/kiosks, only one was so friendly for me to make this review, and on my part, I learnt a lot. Reading this question and answer will bring you to your exposition.

The first man in the far end of this street said he is busy and may not have time; truly he was, but his manners were a bit rude. He was just a promising businessmanwho has made waves due to his years of experience. I almost felt discouraged, but I tried the same region the next day, and I found a man, very gentle, and he seems to know me from my explanation because during a review of this nature, I had to explain myself for proper identification. Without much ado, I would love you to read this review in this concise write-up, or if possible, put on your headset and watch the review through the English version video above from this very learnt bookseller.

What is the most in-demand educational product for children near schools in your area?

Children's books, notebooks, and pens seller

‎

In case you don't know, it's September and the beginning of a session. I mean, every child will be promoted to their new classes, from Primary 1 to 2 and so on. At this point, these products are in very high demand in my locality. I can remember as a kid in nursery school, I misplaced my pens and pencils, and I requesteda new one from my parent even though it didn't come easy but with chastising shouts and, in most cases, a pinch on the pinna. In this part of the world we value formal education so much that even influential people like musicians go to school even after all the accumulation of wealth. Whether it is a public school or a private one for a middle-class or higher-class parent, everyone would love their kids to go to school, and in doing this, these items must be provided on a termly or seasonal basis.

‎

Have you ever bought children's products from these stores? Show pictures and videos and show their prices.

‎
I have bought different items severally in a store. I just signed out from the university, and I purchased items like this on a regular basis. Is it a pen for jotting down those lectures? Is it a crayon for my younger ones? Is it gum to keep my slips from slipping out, or fun art for children, or cardboard for teaching children how to do crafts? Then I am in for a purchase. I have pictures and the prices; books are mostly sold in dozens but can also be sold to a final consumer. Textbooks are also sold here; I saw light children's footballs and hats for children's Christmas parties.

Have you noticed any changes in your child's learning after using the store's products?

‎

I would have said this is not applicable to me following the questions' focus, but I do have younger siblings, and I have been a primary school teacher as well, so I purchase these items as well. Even today I purchased a crayon from this store and also a book for school resumption. Purchasing items like something that can help as instructional materials has really caused a change in my siblings' learning, especially when it comes to those easy-to-read novels and picture galleries which enabled them to identify animals or other things.

‎

Do you think these small shops in society are contributing to the education and happiness of children?

‎

Very well, especially in a semi-urban or an urban area where a parent knows the value of providing materials to children so that intensive learning can take place. Just as farmers shouldn't go to farms without a hoe, so should students not go to school without writing material. I appreciate these booksellers for finding the time to make these resources available to students. Like I said earlier, when I was young, I couldn't count how many pens I misplaced in a week, and each time this happened, I ran to the nearest pen seller to replace them, so this is an indication of the value they provide to education.
