Abstract
The study examined the connection between nursery school pupils' risky play and level of resilience in Oke-Ero Local Government Area of Kwara State, Nigeria. The study looked at types of risky play that preschoolers in the Oke-Ero local government region participate in and how it impacts their level of resilience. Four hundred nursery and primary school pupils from local schools made up the study's population. 150 students who were chosen at random from schools in the research area made up the sample. A risky-play and level of resilience questionnaire (RPLSQ) were utilised in the study. Experts approved the equipment, and the test-retest method was used to ascertain the reliability which yielded a coefficient value of 0.82. Research Descriptive and inferential statistical tool were used in the study. According to the study, some risky plays that primary school pupils participated in have a significant impact on their level of resilience and other formal engagements within the school, despite the well-known advantages that knowledge of risky play offers. In light of the study's findings, it is advised that educators become more aware of the kinds of risky play that elementary school pupils engage to prevent any negative effects on the pupils' performance.
