Cabeçudos is a Portuguese educational and cultural organization that uses books, storytelling, film and creative activities to support children’s learning and development. Its programmes serve schools, families and communities, with a particular focus on literacy, artistic expression, curiosity and emotional wellbeing.

PROL, its early-literacy programme, offers weekly sessions for children aged six months to six years in preschool settings, building positive relationships with books, language and reading. Fábrica de Histórias works with schools to help students create and publish a book collaboratively, while Alto Cinema guides older pupils through making a short film with support from screenwriting, directing and sound professionals. Cabeçudos also provides creative enrichment and family-support activities, oral storytelling sessions, and animated-film screenings adapted from children’s books.

Through its itinerant bookshop, the organization brings books to schools, libraries, public spaces and events across mainland Portugal, offering book displays, guidance and shared stories. Its services also include book publishing, connecting literacy and the arts with accessible, participatory experiences for young people and their communities.
