Moreover, Kuya Maki reveals the unique qualities of Oyayi among other shows for children. “Ang bago dito, apat na ‘A’ ang tawag ko, mas Action-packed, mas punong-puno ng Adventure at ang mga Amazing na Aral.” (What’s new in this show is what I call the 4 “A’s,” which are – more Action, filled with Adventure, and Amazing Lessons or Aral in Filipino.)

“We have to encourage their (kids) curiosity all the time so this is what it’s about,” adds Kuya Maki, whose name was derived from the primary character of his role, mahilig MAKIalam, MAKIusyoso, at MAKIbahagi (loves intervention, investigation and involvement).

Oyayi carries its purpose, which is to provide quality kid’s show that will inpire children to become good citizens of the country at their young ages.
