Little Ammar and Mina Mila are the latest two additions to join the roster that showcases other shows your children likely know and love.

Featuring a cute little boy with his beloved rabbit, Rapbit, each three-minute long episode of Little Ammar will captivate young children through songs, zikirs, and easy-to-understand educational content.

On the other hand, there is Mina Mila, which runs for seven minutes each episode. Mina and Mila are identical twin sisters to Ammar and both have distinct personalities.

Made for children between the ages of five and nine, Mina Mila entertains through funny moments as the twins go through their daily lives.

Check out how adorable Ammar and his two sisters, Mina and Mila, are in this promo clip below:

According to chief operating officer of TV9 Sherina Nordin, "There is no doubt that children now learn faster through television and these two animations, namely Little Ammar and Mina Mila, are suitable for the whole family to watch"

"This animation is very interesting because it uses cheerful colours that can attract the interest of children, in addition to melodies that easily stimulate their minds, as well as religious messages that are easy to learn," Sherina said.

She also noted that the collaboration between TV9 and Durioo comes at a fitting moment, as children are more likely to spend more hours at home, especially at a time like now.

Meanwhile, chief executive officer of Durioo Sinan Ismail said, "We at Durioo are very grateful and happy because Little Ammar and Mina Mila are broadcasted on TV9. As an artist, it is satisfying when the results of our efforts come out on television. Congratulations, Durioo team!"
