Hi-5 Philippines will air on TV5 with 2 time slots starting on Monday, June 15, 2015, 8:30 am and 3:45 pm. It will be an all-Filipino cast for the Hi-5 Philippines. TV5 acquired the franchise of this award-winning Australian children show to bring world-class edutainment experience closer to more Filipino kids.
Are you ready? 1, 2, 3, 4…………
Gwen and I were present at the Hi-5 Philippines media launch yesterday. The parents and the kids surely went crazy as we sing and dance along with the Pinoy casts.

warming up the kids with 1,2,3,4?
Do you know what are they singing in this photo?

L.O.V.E.
My favorite Hi-5 song (ako talaga ang may favorite eh no?) is WOW, L.O.V.E. comes second. Too bad I can’t edit the video taken from my Lumix, clearer video sana. But here are the three videos taken from my phone, hope you’ll watch it albeit shaky.

There will be Filipino songs and lessons incorporated in the show, but the iconic songs from Hi-5 will still be in English. The cast will also communicate in both English and Filipino.
Of course, we wouldn’t want to miss a photo-ops with them.
And with Fely Irvine.
Ako naman, I was thrilled to see Ate Sienna! Kung batang 80s ka, kilala mo si Ate Sienna, batang Batibot tayo eh!

with Ate Sienna!
Sienna “Ate Sienna” Olaso is now TV5’s Vice President for Production Finance and Special Projects, and she will be part of the production side of Hi-5 Philippines. This is really exciting because as a former member of Batibot, she surely knows how to capture the hearts of Filipino kids. And I am sure that the values imparted to us by the defunct show can now be shown via Hi-5 Philippines.
If you can’t wait til Monday, then go to SM Megamall Atrium tomorrow, June 13, 2015, for Hi-5 Philippines Meet and Greet together with Fely Irvine.
So let’s all tune in to TV5 during weekdays, 8:30 am and 3:45 pm. No excuse if your children goes to school in the AM or PM because they have 2 timeslots.
