The group, Hi-5, performs songs as a group as well as presenting individual segments. All segments are integrated with music as a tool to highlight the key concepts of each episode.

The Shapes in Space segment focuses on visual and spatial awareness, with the presenter exploring shapes, colour, texture and everyday materials such as balls, boxes and play-dough.

Musicality is explored through Making Music, with an emphasis on pitch, rhythm, beat, melody, and using a variety of real and pretend instruments.

The presenter of Body Move encourages children to participate in movement and dance, developing physical coordination and motor development.

Linguistics and aural skills are at the centre of the Word Play segment, featuring a puppet named Chatterbox who assists in the exploration of language through stories and rhymes.

Puzzles and Patterns has a focus on logical thinking and mathematics, with a puppet named Jup Jup used as a tool for the presenter to complete puzzles or solve problems.

The final segment in which the cast comes together is entitled Sharing Stories, where a story is told that explores interpersonal relationships and emotions.

The episodes are book-ended with a Song of the Week; a pop-style feature song which corresponds with the weekly theme and sets an educational topic for the week's episodes.

The 2017 revived series featured new puppet characters, The Jupsters, who were introduced as the family of previously established character Jup Jup.

The revival also retained a segment introduced in Hi-5 House, entitled The Chatterbox. This segment focuses on the discovery of language through simple words and phrases, and features the puppet Chatterbox, who teaches a toy robot named Tinka how to speak.
