Is there a LISP/Logo dialect in Portuguese?
For child programming with English words can hinder a little to understand well what everything is and does. I grew up with the Dutch Superlogue. Are there such things in Portuguese?

KTurtle do the KDE Education Project (documentation ).
KTurtle is an educational programming environment that uses TurtleScript, a programming language loosely based on and inspired by the Logo. The goal of KTurtle is to make programming as easy and accessible as possible. This makes KTurtle suitable for teaching children the basics of mathematics, geometry and... schedule. One of the main features of TurtleScript is the ability to translate commands into the programmer's language.
Scratch from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) (documentation).
People currently have access to an unbelievable variety of interactive games, stories, animations, simulations, and other types of interactive and dynamic media on their computers, but for most,these programs are a one-way street: you can just see, click, and use what you want. it was created by other people, you can not design and create your own programs.
Scratch changes this by expanding the range of what you can design and create on the computer, making it easy to combine graphics, photos, music and sounds generating interactive creations. With Scratch, you can create characters that dance, sing and interact with each other, or create images that rotate, rotate and are animated in response to mouse movements, or integrate images with effects music clips to create a birthday card for a friend, or create an interactive school report.
XLogo (documentation ).
XLOGO is an interpreter written in java that currently runs in 8 languages: German, Arabic, French, English, Spanish, Portuguese, Welsh and esperanto. Distributed under the GPL license, it is a free and free program ("software").
With the tat Academy it's surprisingly easy to start creating awesome shapes with the Logo language
SuperLogo of Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UniCamp) (documentation).
This free version of Logo in Portuguese was developed by UniCamp's Nied based on Mswlogo (about Mswlogo it may be interesting to also try FMSLogo, with interfaces in English, Spanish, German and now also in Portuguese).
WxLogo da Universidade Federal de Lavras (UFLA) (documentation).
The wxLogo project consists of the development of a multiplatform LOGO interpreter (with version for Windows and Linux, at least).
This project was created with the hope of contributing to the cost reduction of the computer laboratories of public schools, providing a free program that runs on a free operating system. The LOGO is widely used in computer labs as it stimulates students ' logical thinking.
Other relevant alternatives to start programming with a target audience of children or those unfamiliar with English are:

G-Portugol is a structured programming language, entirely in Portuguese, derived from what is known today as "portugol" (a notation widely used to describe algorithms in Portuguese freely and spontaneously).
algoritmo OlaMundo; início imprima("Olá, Mundo!"); fimIt is interesting to note that the language supports accented characters.

Scratch (MIT)
Scratch is much more accessible than other programming languages, because it uses a graphical interface that allows programs to be assembled as building blocks, reminiscent of The Lego toy. It uses a syntax common to many programming languages. And unlike other languages, it has no punctuation obscure.
Does exist, yes. I remember playing with it at school and it was in Portuguese. There were quite a few such programs in the 90s and early 2000s, but of the still active the only one I remember is KTurtle.
Or Kturtle ( http://edu.kde.org/kturtle ) is part of a KDE suite of educational applications. It has a language based on the Logo and that can be translated. The latest version is for KDE4 and there is Portuguese translation!
