"If they can't learn the way we teach,
then we teach the way they learn."
- O. Ivar Lovaas
Child Development Expert
Because I have three wonderful kids with different personalities, I am made aware that each child grows and learns at his or her own pace. Children who achieve certain milestones early are not necessarily smarter or healthier than children who achieve them a few months, or even years later. The range of what is normal development is quite wide.
I have one child who started talking at nearly 2, but when that child started, she was already talking in sentences. Yes! Plural... sentences talaga! Super daldal. In fact, she is the chattiest among all my kids now! She graduated from grade school early this year with high academic honors.
With proper nutrition and guidance from us, our kids will achieve their own milestones at the right time because not all kids develop at the same time. The wide development range is one reason that it is important to pay attention to each child’s abilities and to plan activities that match and expand those abilities.
It is with that in mind that Ogalala is formed.

Taking its cue from play and parenting insights that integrate learning to play, Ogalala’s Play and Learn System develops the physical, intellectual, social, and emotional skills of a child from birth to 12 years.
