This Sunday (May 23), AHA! celebrates its 11th year on air by formally launching its collaboration with TikTok PH and unveiling its newest mascot.

Dubbed #AHAmazingLearning, the said collab between the country’s award-winning infotainment show and the popular social networking service will feature AHA’s fun and educational videos exclusively on the platform. At the same time, popular TikTok creators also get to share their valuable content on television via AHA!

The program further encourages other TikTok creators to upload their fun educational content using the hashtag #AHAmazingLearning. The hashtag has not been formally launched yet, but as of this writing has already garnered close to 10 million views.

Host Drew Arellano also introduces the show’s new mascot--the cute and lovable ‘Tuklas’. Tuklas will regularly join the program’s dance portions and will also give trivia and other information for viewers.

“I feel very happy and honored to be part of a very fun and educational show for the kids,” shared Drew about the show celebrating its 11th anniversary. “A lot has changed over the years as we have constantly adjusted to what the viewers would like to watch and learn.”

The Kapuso host expressed his gratitude to viewers who remain loyal to the show.

“Thanks for always watching AHA over the years! We can't wait to entertain and educate you with new AHA moments with our new KA-AHA friends,” he added.

Indeed, more diverse, exciting, and fun stories, dance, games, travel, and new learning experiences await viewers starting this Sunday.

Jaws will surely drop at the edge-of-your-seat action of drifting cars. AHA! tells us how this is performed.

An amazing turtle has two heads. How can this seemingly tame and harmless turtle also bite? While doing so, viewers also get to learn the proper way of handling and taking care of some special breeds of turtle.

Meanwhile, witness the never-ending battle of wits between the AHA! Squad members: Kapuso child stars Yuan ‘Pao Pao’ Francisco and Euwenn Mikael Aleta with the pesky King Cockroach who never runs out of gimmicks and ploys.

Catch the new AHA! hosted by Drew Arellano, starting this Sunday, May 23, at 8:15 AM on GMA Network.
