The Voice Kids is a reality television series that started from the Dutch television series with the same title, which was a spin-off of the Dutch series The Voice of Holland. The series features three coaches searching for a batch of talented new kids, who could become the Philippines' new child singing superstar. The coaches will judge a contestant termed by the show as "artist" with only their vocal talent without prejudice to their physical appearance.[2]
The show consists of five stages – producers' auditions, blind auditions, battles, sing-offs and live shows.[2]
