Project Playtime

May concern ka about your child or student… pero hindi mo alam kung sino ba talaga ang dapat tanungin? 🤔

Speech delay? Behavior? Development?
Kailangan na bang ipa-assess—or wait and see muna?

Sometimes, ang daming questions that you don’t even know where to start.

That’s why for Day 3 of Parenting with Confidence, you can bring your questions to a LIVE panel with:

👨🏻‍⚕️ Developmental Pediatrician
💛 Occupational Therapist
💬 Speech-Language Pathologist

One concern. Three professional perspectives. So you can better understand what you’re seeing and have more clarity on possible next steps.

And yes—LIVE and online, so you can join from home. 🙌🏼

Perfect for parents, teachers & educators who have questions about a child they’re supporting.

📅 October 17 | 6–7 PM
💻 Live via Zoom

Comment “HELP” and we’ll send you the registration link. 💛

𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬, 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬… I’ve been working on something I can’t wait to share with you. 👀

For the past 12 years as an SLP, one question I hear all the time is:

“Teacher Mariel, ano na ba dapat sinasabi or ginagawa ng bata at this age?”

And honestly, I understand why. When you’re supporting a child, you want to know what’s expected, what you can do to help, and when it’s time to seek professional guidance.

Kaya I created something simple, practical, and easy to use—something that can help you better understand a child’s communication journey.

I’m not ready to show you everything just yet… 🤭

At Toy Kingdom Toy Kingdom’s Toy Expo 2026 at SMX, Teacher Mariel joined Ogalala’s Ask the Play Expert—and it quickly became a 𝗯𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗯𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 segment.

Parents came with questions:

“What should my child be saying at their age?”
“Which toys can help my child talk more?”

With the 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗠𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿, Teacher Mariel helped parents understand milestones and make more intentional toy choices—because play can be a powerful opportunity for communication, connection, and learning. 🤍

Thank you, Ogalala World , for the opportunity to bring SLP expertise directly to families!

Hindi kailangang i-ban ang screen time. 🤍

𝗠𝗮𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘆:
“Ano ang nangyayari habang nanonood ang anak ko?”

Because language isn't built by watching alone. It grows through 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, 𝗲𝘆𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗰𝘁, 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗲𝗿, and those 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀, 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝗱𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀 with you.

It’s not just about LESS screen time—it’s about making MORE room for intentional interaction

Pause the video. Talk about what you see. Ask a question. Respond to your child. Then continue the conversation through play, books, or everyday routines.

Hindi perfection ang goal.
Connection ang goal. 🤍

📌 𝗦𝗖𝗥𝗘𝗘𝗡 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘 𝗨𝗦𝗘 𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗥:
Children 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝘄 2 years old are 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 to watch screen media. Screen time may be used for video calling with family and loved ones, where there is meaningful social interaction.

Save this for your next screen time routine, then send it to another parent who needs this reminder. 💙

The best part of a workshop? What teachers do with what they learned. 🤍

After our Teacher Training Workshop, we asked teachers to share their biggest takeaways.

And their answers remind us why these conversations matter.

From recognizing developmental milestones, to understanding communication needs, to learning how to better observe and support children—the goal is always practical application.

Hindi lang “I learned something today.”

It’s:
“I know what to look for now.”
“I know what I can do next.”
“I feel more confident supporting my students.”

That's the kind of learning we want to create. ✨

🎥 Hear directly from the teachers who experienced it.

🍎 Want your teachers to learn, practice, and apply these strategies too? Message us about our Teacher Training Workshop.

𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗧: Hindi lang ito upo, listen, and take notes.

We believe teachers learn best when they can experience the strategies themselves.

That's why our sessions are packed with interactive discussions, hands-on activities, demonstrations, practical classroom strategies, and opportunities to ask questions.

From understanding developmental milestones and what are the signs to watch out for 👀 to learning how to support children and communicate observations with parents—every activity is designed to be something teachers can take back to the classroom.

So yes, fun siya. But it's 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗳𝘂𝗻. 🤍

Because the goal isn't simply to finish a workshop.

It's to leave feeling 𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗱𝗮𝘆.

“𝗔𝗺 𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱?”

If you've ever asked yourself this—even quietly—this is for you. 🤍

Minsan, napapacompare ka. Minsan, nag-aalala ka. At may mga araw na kahit ginagawa mo naman ang best mo, parang kulang pa rin.

But here's something I want you to remember:

𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗮 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂.

Yung nagbabasa ng isang story bago matulog.
Yung sumasagot sa paulit-ulit na “Bakit?”
Yung nakikipaglaro kahit pagod na.
Yung nagbibigay ng yakap after a long day.

Because progress isn't always loud.

Minsan, isang bagong salita lang.
Isang mas mahabang usapan.
Isang tawa habang naglalaro.
Isang maliit na milestone na muntik mo nang hindi mapansin.

Those ordinary moments are quietly building your child's confidence, communication, and connection. 🤍

📌 Save this for the days when parenting feels a little heavy.
