Online Coding for Kids Global Market Report 2025

The online coding for kids market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $4.49 billion in 2024 to $5.44 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.2%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to factors such as increasing screen time among children, early adoption of STEM education, a greater parental focus on skill-based learning, the rise of edtech platforms, and the gamification of learning.

The online coding for kids market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $11.6 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.9%. The projected growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the integration of coding programs into school curriculums, the growing demand for future-ready skills, expansion into rural and tier-2 cities, personalized learning experiences, and increasing internet penetration. Key trends expected during this period include AI-driven learning paths, augmented and virtual reality-based coding tutorials, voice-assisted learning, gamified coding platforms, and real-time collaborative coding tools.

The expanding availability of internet access is expected to drive the growth of the online coding for kids market in the coming years. The surge in internet access is largely fueled by the rising demand for online education, allowing students to learn from anywhere and at any time. This increased internet availability enables children to participate in live coding classes, engage with interactive platforms, and explore coding communities for continuous learning and creativity. For example, in March 2025, the Office of Communications, a UK-based regulatory authority for TV, radio, telecoms, postal services, and wireless communications, reported that 62% of premises had gigabit-capable connections in 2024, a rise from 54% in 2023. This growing internet access is helping to propel the online coding for kids market.

Leading companies in the online coding for kids market are developing advanced products such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML)-based solutions to personalize learning experiences and enhance student engagement. AI and ML technologies use data and algorithms to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence. These technologies adapt lessons to a child's learning pace and style, providing tailored coding guidance. For example, in December 2022, Tynker, a U.S.-based creative coding platform for K-12 students, launched an AI block coding course for kids aged seven and older. This course enables young learners to create AI and ML applications, games, and interactive projects using beginner-friendly drag-and-drop programming tools. It covers advanced concepts such as computer vision, object mapping, hand tracking, face tracking, and natural language processing, making complex AI technologies accessible to young coders.

In January 2023, Uolo EdTech Private Limited, an India-based edtech company, acquired Kiwhode Learning Pvt Ltd. for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition allowed Uolo to expand its offerings by incorporating structured coding programs for school-aged learners, strengthening its position in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education. Tekie, an India-based edtech company, provides a live coding platform that uses a storytelling-based approach and animated videos to explain coding concepts, further enhancing Uolo's STEM educational content.

Online coding for kids involves using internet-based platforms and resources to teach children the fundamentals of computer programming in an engaging and enjoyable way. These programs are tailored to be age-appropriate, often incorporating visual interfaces, games, and interactive challenges to help children grasp coding concepts such as logic, sequences, loops, and variables. Online coding enables kids to create animations, websites, and games, while also fostering critical skills such as problem-solving, creative thinking, and critical analysis.

The primary types of coding languages for online learning include block-based coding, text-based coding, and web development. Block-based coding uses visual interfaces, where children can drag and drop code blocks to create programs, making complex concepts easier for beginners to understand. The main learning approaches include self-paced learning, instructor-led courses, and project-based learning, available through platforms such as online coding classes, mobile apps, and game-based learning environments.
