Crianceiras - Manoel de Barros

Sing, dance and play with Manoel de Barros's animated and musical poems.

Sing, dance and play with the animated and musical poems of Manoel de Barros, one of the most original Brazilian poets today, and become more like a tree, a fish and a bird.

Children: an "invencionática" application, made especially for girls and boys involved in "unreasonable things".

The Crianceiras project, which is already a CD and a show, has now also become an application full of animations and interactivity. In it you will find the ten poems set to music by the composer Márcio de Camillo and illuminations by Martha Barros, the poet's daughter.

There are four places to discover:

Clips

- Each poem set to music comes with a clip. It has "Sombra Boa", "Bernardo", "O Menino e o Rio" and all the other songs on the CD, very well accompanied by Martha Barros' illuminations in new animations.

Poetry

- A unique notebook in which four poems become toys. In each text there are interactive words that hold a surprise within them: a sound, a meaning, an illumination.

To design

- Anyone who wants to draw outside the paper, outside the box, will find here different textures and illuminations taken from the work of Martha Barros to compose drawings and inventions.

Photograph

- One, two, three and click! Here it is possible to capture moments with stickers of Bernardo, Ramela, Sombra Boa and many other characters from Crianceiras.

Crianceiras, the application, comes to illustrate what the poet said in verse: "What I wanted was to make toys with words".

The Crianceiras app was created with the sponsorship of Oi Futuro through ProAC-ICMS.
