Story Workshop with Taste - Maria Mete Medo
6 jun 2027
A new series of children's cooking workshops has arrived in partnership with Livros Horizonte, bringing together two ways of learning and feeling: stories that inspire the heart and recipes that awaken the senses.
In this session, we will delve into the story “Maria Mete Medo” (Maria Spooks), written and illustrated by Natalina Cóias and published by Livros Horizonte. A rhyming, fun, and rhythmic story where we meet Maria – a girl who spends her day scaring everyone she meets, making her "big mouth" and ugly faces to instill fear.
Through an exploratory reading, we will understand that behind these behaviors often lies sadness, frustration, a need for attention, or even difficulty in expressing feelings. The book creates space to talk about fears, courage, empathy, and also bullying – how our actions affect others and how we can transform hurtful behaviors into more caring ways of communicating.
After the story, we move to the kitchen. Here, children will prepare recipes inspired by the narrative, transforming emotions into flavor, creativity, and autonomy. It is in a safe, calm, and welcoming environment that we work on all of this: cooking helps organize feelings, builds confidence, and creates beautiful moments between adults and children.
📖 Special offer: Each child takes home a copy of the book autographed by the authors, a unique souvenir filled with emotional value.
