Learn Danish: Desserts and Sweets – Picture-Word Match for Kids

Pair by pair, your child brings order here. On one side wait the cupcakes, lollipops and pies as pictures; on the other, their Danish names. Your child reads the Danish vocabulary, thinks about which word fits which drawing, and draws a line between them. This calm joining task firms up Danish vocabulary, because your child keeps bringing the written word together with the right picture. Nothing has to be searched for or spelled — reading and matching are the heart of it, and that makes first steps into Danish especially light. Let your child puzzle in peace, with no rush and no contest. You can print the match for free or open it online to play, as often as your child likes.

In this picture-word match your child links each drawing to the right Danish word. The cupcakes, lollipops and pies stand ready as pictures, with their Danish names beside them. Your child reads, thinks, and draws a line to the right word. So they learn to connect a picture with its written Danish name — no pressure, at their own pace, with no score. Because nothing has to be written, reading and recognizing take centre stage, and that is just what makes first steps into Danish so light and welcome for your child. 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 Christmas things and the ones with feelings 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 sweet treats 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!
