The rise of written / printed culture is, without question, one of the most significant events set forth by the beginning of Modernity. Consolidated throughout the 19th century, it brought about a series of new cultural practices that would substantially modify the way we understand the world and communicate with the other, while also providing us with a great diversity of reading practices and materials. During the 19th century, the written word began to address various specific types of population; such is the case of Diario de los Niños (1839-1840) and Los niños pintados por ellos mismos (1843) periodical publications for children which emerged under the initiative of Vicente García Torres, with the objective of contributing to the education of the future citizens required by the new project of society. This text studies these publications through the following axes: a) the first periodical publication aimed at children; b) exemplary models or Mozart for children; c) social representations around childhood.

Palabras llave : Modernity; Written/printed culture; Cultural practices; Childhood; Exemplary models.
