Overview

Me When I Was A Baby, also known as Whimsical Little Creature, refers to videos of the TikTok account MaestreEnsinador1. It features videos of a flying white puppet wearing a green hat named "Tiburcio." The name translates to "master teacher" in Portuguese, with the gnome puppet being referred to as a "forest being" by the TikToker in his comment sections. The videos often show the puppet flying and twirling, sometimes doing a little dance and sometimes undertaking mysterious rituals. Maestre Ensinador went viral in the fall of 2022 after a series of duets where people showed his videos to their younger siblings and tried to convince them that the puppet was them as a baby. Many humorously speculated as to how the faked collective memories could harm Gen Alpha in the future.

History

On May 9th, 2020, TikToker[1] @mestreensinador1 posted a skit where he digs up a mysterious cloth bag containing a white puppet wearing a green hat. The caption to the video read, "Butija," which means "buried treasure." The post gathered over 1 million plays and 100,000 likes in over two years (seen below, left). On June 4th, the TikToker[2] posted a skit of him dancing with a white puppet with a green hat, alongside a caption that read, "Meu Professor," and a comment that read "Meu mestre e meu rei ele é meu professor," which translates from Portuguese to mean "My master and my king he is my teacher." The post gathered over 6,000 views and 600 likes in over two years (seen below, right). These posts appear to set up the cinematic universe for later videos featuring the puppet, alluding to the account's username as well.
