Mouka celebrates with Nigerian youth on this year’s Children’s Day while recognising the vital role played by parents in providing the framework for a healthy sleep culture needed for sound physical and cognitive development.
Celebrated every May 27th, Children’s Day in Nigeria is conceived to promote togetherness and self-awareness among children and children’s rights within society.
Mr. Femi Fapohunda, the company’s Managing Director, emphasised Mouka’s unwavering commitment to children’s well-being. He stated, “As we celebrate this year’s Children’s Day with the theme ‘Investing in our future means investing in our children,’ Mouka remains dedicated to promoting healthy sleep right from childhood as this is a precursor to academic excellence as well as physical, social, emotional and mental wellbeing. We have a Mouka product specially designed for each age group, from cradle to grey, to help each Nigerian sleep well so they can perform at their best the next day. A well-rested child will perform better in school and be socially well-adjusted. If a healthy sleep culture is imbibed and continues into adulthood, they will become a highly productive member of the country’s labour force. In other words, investing in good sleep for our children helps to build a brighter future for our nation.”
Mouka’s Brand Manager, Tolani Tijani, shed more light on the company’s specialised products for children. “Mouka has a wide range of products specially designed with kids in mind. The Dreamtime mattress is available for younger children in the crib and regular bed sizes.
