Meanwhile, with the development in economics and the advance in science and technology, the issues of education for preschool children have received unprecedented attention.

Therefore, this review takes a lot of reading on literature with the aim of collecting opinions and data from different perspectives, also analyzing them. Ultimately summarizing the possible factors as comprehensively as possible. The research points out that there are various factors related to children’s language development, which can be divided into internal and external factors. Internal factors include gender difference and language aptitude. The external actors, for instance, parent-infant interactions, bilingual family effects, and speech heard at school.
