The Banning of Nee Doh’s
The banning of Nee Doh’s is a school-wide disappointment.
From the classrooms to the hallways, there have been zero Nee Doh’s found lately. Except sometimes, some kids don’t follow that rule. Kids will still bring their Nee Doh’s to school and play with them, and the teachers won’t do anything about it. If Nee Doh’s are really banned, why are some teachers not enforcing the rule?
Nee Doh’s are banned not because teachers dislike child enjoyment, but because they are sticky and messy to clean up. Many kids have the Nice Berg/Nice Cube, which has super sticky glue inside that is very hard to clean up. Other people have Nee Doh’s that have fluffy, white superglue inside of them, which is even stickier and harder to clean up! Most teachers had already banned them in their classrooms, but Mrs. Fillpot made it official on Monday, April 20, 2026, throughout the whole school. Maybe, if teachers really dislike them, should they just take them away?
Lately, I have noticed teachers threatening to take Nee Doh’s away, but they never actually do. Why is that? Well, first of all, it sometimes scares kids when teachers want to take their items to the office, so they’ll put them away. Although some kids risk it all and find out that the teachers are lying. Another reason is that teachers don’t want them to pop in their hands, and they’d rather have a kid clean up that mess. Mr. Sobonya said he doesn’t enforce the rule or take them away because he never even knew they were banned.
In conclusion, Nee Doh’s are banned because of the mess and the time spent cleaning up after them. The teachers don’t like them and are happy that it is a Nee Doh-free school, while the kids are taking risks every day! I guess you’ll see in the future if they are really banned or not.
