Within the framework of positive psychology there is a line of research focused on the study of the virtues and strengths, understood as a well established family of positive character traits, which allow to take a wide perspective on human potential, their motivations and capabilities (Sheldon & King, 2001). Childhood is a good time to identify and promote the virtues and strengths that Positive Psychology proposes, because the child provides a base that allows you address the major challenges of adolescence (Park & Peterson, 2006). This article proposes a review of investigations conducted in the ield of children about the virtues and strengths. It also describes some of the beneits that the study may have potential in developing educational programs for prevention and intervention.
