When the sound of samba resonates through the corridors of a media library, it's because the joy of Brazil is never far away! On the occasion of the Brazil-France 2025 Season, the Médiathèque Violette Leduc (Paris 11th) is transforming its famous " Racontines de Violette " into an enchanted interlude in the colors of Carioca carnival on Saturday, May 17, 2025. During this festive period, little ones are invited to discover a warm universe through storytelling, traditional Brazilian songs and shared dance moments.
If you're looking for a fun, sensory outing for your child, this free animation is the perfect opportunity to introduce them to the cultural wealth of another continent. Comfortably seated on cushions, children aged 1 to 4 are drawn into a whirlwind of sunny rhythms, under the benevolent gaze of librarian-storytellers. All in a gentle, festive atmosphere designed to stimulate their musical awakening and imagination, and foster the parent-child bond around a moment of complicity.
How about turning your Saturday morning into a colorful party? Thanks to this animation, young audiences discover sounds, words and dances from elsewhere, in a warm and safe environment. You'll see your child clapping his hands, swaying his hips and singing along to the lively rhythm of the samba. It's the spirit of Brazil in the heart of Paris, in a gentle, accessible format designed especially for the very young.
The event is part of the wider Brazil-France 2025 Season, a multicultural program that travels to many cultural venues in France to celebrate the rich exchanges between the two countries. At the Médiathèque Violette Leduc, this event is designed as an artistic awakening: no need for plane tickets to travel far - a few dance steps and a lullaby to tropical rhythms are all it takes to get the imagination off the ground.
Perfect for a family outing, this event will delight young parents looking for cultural activities adapted to toddlers. The atmosphere is gentle, caring and conducive to discovery: no performance here, just participation, sharing and lots of laughter. And since the activity is free, you only need to reserve in advance to guarantee your place.
So, if you've always wanted to introduce your children to other cultures, or simply enjoy a tender, joyful moment with them, don't miss this Brazilian interlude. Les Racontines de Violette dresses up in feathers and colors: are you ready to dance the samba?
