“We at IGM believe that education through play is the foundation for a holistic life. This is why we developed the Ogalala System in Play concept so that we can offer Filipino kids the best play and education tools to equip them in their journey towards knowledge and self-discovery,” said IGM COO Maye Yao Co Say. “To help us in our mission to promote learning through play, we brought to Ogalala a roster of globally-trusted brands that specialize in kids’ education. They serve as our partners in our quest for an intelligent, well-rounded, and globally-competitive Filipino child.”
Housed inside the colorful halls of the Ogalala store are products from brands like Crayola, the expert in color and creativity tools, arts and crafts brand Melissa & Doug, and award-winning manufacturer of organic toys HABA.
