Reading and writing is an important precondition of course.
So is logical thinking and having fun with puzzles.
Do you have experience with

So the local language matters a lot, because most children cannot do enough
English at 10 years.
Anyone experiences or even research about board games that should prepare for
coding, like

Best Regards,
