Do you ever feel like you didn’t make the most of your time as a 4-year-old? Like you failed to appreciate how awesome life was when “gift shopping” meant bringing home a macaroni necklace? Like you’d give anything to see nap time on your schedule again?

Your inner child is in luck — but only if your outer adult can afford to enrol in “adult preschool,” which is an actual thing now. No jokes.

Based in Brooklyn, N.Y., Preschool Mastermind is a one-month long program that purports to help grown-ups over the age of 18 “re-learn the basics and experience the magic of life as it was originally intended.”

For between $333 and $999, participants can expect to spend time in class playing games, doing arts and crafts, participating in show-and-tell sessions, going on field trips and completing playsheets, among other activities.

They’ll also have nap time.

According to the course’s website, Preschool Mastermind has a limit of 10 students per class — all of whom must apply for the privilege of enrolling.

This is 100% pure selfishness.

As a kid growing up I had a lot of great coaches. Most of them were the older brothers of my friends. I had one goal growing and that was to coach as well, which I have done for the last 35 years.

Life is all about giving back. Not going back!

That doesn’t surprise me. Parents had to pay very large chunks of cash for this experience that was unknown in previous generations. Its no wonder it is now the subject of sentimentality.

What’s really amazing is that they ever got together in the first place.

I would not go back through K 12 for anything. never been to a reunion either. From what I’ve heard from the ones who went, the mentalities are the same.

I sort of keep in touch with a few people.

This sounds about right. A huge chunk of the country wants someone else to take care of them. Turning into adult babies is the logical next step.

There might be something to this “income equality” thing. Capitalism will relieve these idiots of their excess of burdens.

Interesting....an adult preschool... nap times? I wonder if cribs are used for nsp times!!

The libertarian in me thinks that it is fine. The conservative in me think it must be for Obama supporters...

I’ve gone to two renunions.

Actually, I feel a sense of schadenfruede over what they are compared with what I have done with my life.
