Learn Danish: Fruits – Picture-Word Match for Kids

Read, think, connect — that is the whole idea of this Danish picture-word match. Your child studies the apples, bananas and pears and reads the Danish words offered beside them. Then they draw a line from each picture to the matching word. This task trains recognition of written Danish words, because your child has to read the name and join it to the right picture. It is an especially friendly way to practise early Danish, since nothing has to be spelled and nothing has to be searched for. Take your time together; what matters here is the calm, happy joining. When a clean line runs from every picture to the correct Danish word, your child can look proudly at the match they finished all on their own.

In this picture-word match your child links each drawing to the right Danish word. The apples, bananas and pears 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 feelings and the ones with hospital things 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 fruit 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!
