Abstract As coding curriculums have been gradually integrated into preschool education, researchers have started to explore the impact and mechanisms of coding learning on preschoolers’ cognitive development.By analyzingand integrating the exiting findings, we found that preschoolers’ cognitive abilities are developing rapidly, and coding learning can significantly improve the development of basic cognitive abilities, such as cognitive control and working memory. Additionally, coding learning can promote the development of high-order cognitive abilities, including problem solving and creative thinking, and enhance the outcome in mathematical and language learning. Finally, to provide scientific evidence for early coding education, we propose that research in this field still needs to be improved in terms of design, method, systematic research and other influencing factors, which would provide insight into the mechanism of the effect of early coding learning on cognitive development.
