On 19 August 2010, RTL announced that the name RTL Telekids would be used for a new youth block on RTL 8. A big difference with the former programme Telekids is that the broadcast is no longer done by a presenter from the studio.

Originally, RTL Telekids would start on 4 October 2010. However, on 1 October 2010, there was a collision place on the A59 where a woman and three children were killed in a car accident on their way to the Efteling, where the shooting would take place for the programme, De Schatkamer, which is part of RTL Telekids. Out of respect for the victims' families the launch of RTL Telekids had been postponed for two weeks until 18 October 2010
