Lullabies of the World
by Metronome Films



Thanks to my sweet Isilita, today I came across with one of the most beautiful animation series that I have ever seen. Is called "Lullabies of the world", a collection of animated films based on lullabies of different nations. As they say, the movies are made for everybody, but mostly for children and the viewer will feel as if he is lulled by a loving mother. Well, I must said that I completely had that feeling and for that reason I decided to share my small research with all of you. Sweet dreams!

Turkish
What calves eat and where children come from.
Dandini dandini danalı bebek...



African
In Africa there are such flies that sing and make everybody fall asleep. This is why in Africa everyone sleeps so well.



Chukchi-Eskimo
The film shows how to calm down a child.



Indian
The story about Krishna and his mother.



Azerbaijan
A child sees all his life in his dream.



Russian
Before falling asleep a little girl is watching what is going on around her. Or is she seeing it in a dream?



Ucranian
Night and Winter lull the babies and bring happy dreams.



Spanish
Gypsy children can sleep fast... a bit strong for a lullaby, but is nice.



Greek
A sleepless night, Homer, tight sails…



Swedish
Every little troll has his secret…



Canadian
Brave sailors aren’t afraid of storms, their guiding star will always lead them home.



French
Show me how to save chickens.



Jewish
A little boy dreams of being a bird.



Bulgarian
My little snowdrop, why did you appear all alone so early?



Armenian
How to prepare an Armenian pita and what to wrap in it.



German
Little baby, don’t you cry, your mother will give you a bear.



Japanese
The Weaver and the Bootes constellations meet in the sky once a year. If there is a thunderstorm that night, they have to wait until next year.



Moldavian
Baby, it’s wonderful that you are so small.


North American
Is not from the series but is similar and really beautiful too.



The Hungarian and Georgian are still missing and I cannot find them anywhere.
They released around 20 animations but there will be more
from some other countries at some point, when the new collection is ready, I'll be glad to share it too, so stay tuned.
