The Brazilian Carnival began with the Shrovetide, a popular festival brought by the Portuguese. Shrovetide manifested itself in the period of colonial Brazil and also in the Empire. In Recife it still exists today. At this party, the revelers threw water, eggs, flour, powders of various kinds, such as lime, etc., at each other. As the celebrations became more and more violent, Shrovetide ended up being banned.

The first samba school, Let Falar, dates back to 1920. Today, samba schools are registered civil societies, made up of groups of organized and costumed revelers who compete for prizes among themselves. They sing samba-enredo with themes featuring legends, myths, historical events, great Brazilian figures. The biggest and most famous are those in Rio de Janeiro. Who has not heard of Portela, Estação Primeira de Mangueira, Império Serrano, Beija-Flor, Imperatriz Leopoldinense, Mocidade Independente de Padre Miguel?

The samba school parades are well-known shows that attract thousands of tourists from all over the world. The parade obeys certain rules, among which the presentation of open wings, front commission, flag bearer and master of the hall and dancers.

Several rhythms have already animated Carnival, but today samba, carnival marches and frevo predominate. Among the great composers of carnival music from the past, we can mention: Chiquinha Gonzaga. Noel Rosa, Pixinguinha, Lamartine Babo, Ari Barroso.

Carnival Activities for Early Childhood Education – Songs and Marches

The marchinha is a type of music that has a cadence reminiscent of songs played by military fanfares, hence the name march. It was at the sound of Carnival marches that Brazilians took part in the Carnival's street and ballroom revels throughout most of the 20th century.

LOLLIPOP

Yo-yo gives Iaiá's arm
Iaiá gives yo-yo's arm

Lollipop hitting beats
Lollipop that has already hit
Who likes me is she
Who likes her is me, hey!
now it's better
we dance
together like this
if you have more pleasure
Who doesn't dance the Lollipop
What joy can you have?

Children from 2 to 3 years old:

PICK LEG PIRATE

So if another pirate
Try the approach I take the machete
And shout from the top of the stern:
Oops! no man!

this life is a knot

Take the bottle and get it on my cord
I have a sister named Ana

I have a sister who is phenomenal.
She is from bossa and her husband is a jerk
