Nollywood actress Shola Kosoko recently indulged in a heartwarming activity, reminiscing about her childhood as she played in the rain with her children. Sharing the joyful moment on her Instagram page, the daughter of renowned actor Jide Kosoko posted a video of herself and her kids enjoying the rainy weather.
In the video, Shola expressed delight at reliving the carefree moments of her youth, highlighting how they used to eagerly play in the rain without waiting for permission, even if it sometimes led to reprimand.
Shola’s playful escapade with her kids echoes a trend among celebrity mothers, showcasing the simple yet profound joy of bonding with children amidst nature’s elements.

Despite exhaustion, Mercy Johnson embraced the opportunity to create lasting memories for her children, garnering admiration from fans and fellow celebrities alike. Similarly, Laide Bakare and veteran actress Toyin Tomato also joined the trend, sharing moments of playful abandon with their children under the rain.
Laide Bakare’s video, though criticized by some for her attire choice, celebrated the joy of motherhood and the nostalgia of childhood. Meanwhile, Toyin Tomato initiated the “rain challenge,” inspiring followers to embrace childlike wonder and spontaneity by playing in the rain regardless of age.
