• Bibolillits - the channel's breakfast block that includes Nick Jr. and selected British & American cartoons intended for pre-schoolers and young children.
• Kapow! - the channel's morning block that includes foreign cartoons on Tuesdays and Thursdays; and Nickelodeon cartoons on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. On weekends, a marathon of select Nick cartoons are aired, yet it is not a re-run of weekday Kapow! shows.
• All Yey! Anime - the channel's weeknight primetime block consisting of Japanese Anime shows targeting the teenage audience. A weekend version of the block airs between 3:00 and 5:00pm.

Outside of its core format, marathons of selected ABS-CBN's programs that are considered family-oriented and child-friendly are aired. On Sunday evenings, Yey! airs family and child-friendly movies under the program Kid Sine.
