Brazilian animation Lulumos has just made its energetic debut on YouTube, offering kids and families a joyful mix of music, creativity, and learning. The series stars three inseparable friends – Hit, Disco, and Zig Lu – who shine on stage during a school talent show, captivating viewers with their vibrant performances and charming personalities.

In the first episode, the trio performs an English version of the classic children's song Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes. The Brazilian take on the beloved tune has already captured significant attention, with the original version amassing over 300,000 views. The show combines catchy rhythms with educational value, inspiring children to sing, dance, and have fun.

“We chose a live performance as the setting for this episode because it mirrors the excitement and emotions kids feel during school events,” explains director Gustavo Ribeiro. The animation blends reinterpretations of classics with original compositions, emphasizing themes of friendship, creativity, and perseverance. "It’s incredible to see the characters start out shy and then shine on stage – a message of overcoming challenges for little ones," Ribeiro adds.

Beyond the show, the Lulumos website (lulumos.com.br) offers engaging activities like printable coloring books, ensuring an interactive experience for young fans. New episodes will roll out regularly, featuring songs with a Brazilian twist and simple, danceable choreography inspired by internet trends.

Produced by the award-winning Miralumo Filmes, the animation incorporates cutting-edge technology, including a unique blend of 3D characters and 2D facial expressions. Known for their acclaimed short film Napo, Miralumo has once again demonstrated their knack for creating visually stunning and emotionally resonant stories.

With its lively songs, meaningful themes, and innovative visuals, Lulumos promises to become a family favorite, bringing music and movement to homes worldwide.
