Visuals: On a red stage background with multicolored stars at the top, the word "ABC" in a simplistic kid's font is seen colored in green, yellow, and orange, respectively, curved up to make a semicircle shape. Below is "kid TV" in the same font in cyan and purple. "ABC" zooms up letter by letter to accompany the letter said, "kid" shakes violently and "TV" zooms up. The curtains then open up to the mascot on the stage to start the video.

Variants: On Shapes Song - 31 Kids Songs and Videos | CoComelon Nursery Rhymes & Kids Songs, there is a stage with blue curtains. The letters "A" "B" and "C" appear on the screen one by one, followed by "kid TV" coming up from the bottom. The word "ABC" is colored in red, orange, and blue, while "kid TV" is colored in green and purple. The text is also added with white outlines in it.
