In 1979 she was invited to participate in the First Gala Internacional dos Pequenos Cantores (International Gala of the Small Singers) da Figueira da Foz. She won a competition by singing the song “Eu vi um sapo" ("I saw a frog"), a song written by César Batalha Carvalho. She later launched a single entitled Coro Infantil de Santo Amaro de Oeiras. The song was chosen to represent Portugal, in Bologna, in the 1980 edition of the Zecchino d'Oro, a festival of little known songs with profits going to the well-known charity UNICEF, with Armanda Maria emerging victorious with a song entitled "Ho visto un rospo". She released the record “Eu vi um sapo”, which features some participation of the Piccolo dell'Antoniano Choir. In 1981 she continued her career with the launching of two new singles, entitled “Escola é vida (School Is Life)” and “Balão Azul" (''Blue Balloon'')”.
