The earlier studies about educational materials have mainly focused on textbooks used in schools. But, historically, not only books but various kinds of materials have been used as educational media in Japan. In this paper, I focus on "Kyoiku Nishiki-e" (educational wood block prints) used in early Meiji era as a visual-educational media. The series of "Kyoiku Nishiki-e" were published by the Ministry of Education for children before school age and their parents. Those pictures show us the educational dimensions at the time. I examine the contents and political background of the pictures, then, clarify the significance of "Kyoiku Nishiki-e" as a educational media.
