Learn Danish: Body Parts – Picture-Word Match for Kids

Which Danish word goes with which picture? That is what your child works out here, by joining the matching pairs. On one side stand the hands, feet and ears as drawings; opposite them their Danish names, pleasantly jumbled. Your child reads the Danish vocabulary, glances at the pictures, and then draws a line between a picture and its right word. With every connection they make, it sinks in a little more how the Danish name of a familiar thing looks and sounds. So their Danish vocabulary grows piece by piece, with no pressure and no rush. Let your child think and try in their own time; a line may always be drawn again. By the end, a line runs from every picture to the matching Danish word.

Read, think, connect: your child studies the hands, feet and ears and reads the Danish words beside them. Then they draw a line from each picture to the matching word. That trains recognition of written Danish words, with no writing at all. Take your time together — what counts is the happy joining, with no clock and no contest. With every pair matched, the look of the Danish word grows more familiar, and your child moves step by step toward reading their first Danish vocabulary. Danish often sounds softer than it looks, so a word can be written one way and spoken a little more gently.

Has your child had so much fun connecting? Then there is plenty more to discover! The matches about the bakery treats and the ones with camping gear hold fresh pictures and new Danish words looking for their partners. And once your child is in the swing of it, a whole free collection built around the body parts is ready to go — free to print or simply to play online. That way learning Danish stays varied and gives a little fresh pleasure each day, all at your child’s own pace. Have fun reading, thinking, and connecting together!
