In recent years, the reform of kindergarten curriculum has set off a wave in China, and the kindergarten curriculum gamification has become one of the hot topics in the field of preschool education research in China. A review of the relevant research results on the gamification of kindergarten curriculum in China can further explore the research status of this field, which has important implications for the future research and development of kindergarten curriculum in China. The research shows that the research on the gamification of kindergarten curriculum in China mainly focuses on five aspects, namely, the research on the basic connotation, essential char-acteristics, educational value, existing difficulties and promotion strategies of the gamification of kindergarten curriculum. Finally, based on the analysis of the research results, this paper puts forward the shortcomings of the existing research and the prospect of the future research on the gamification of kindergarten curriculum.
