Label the house in Danish, starting with this grid

Beginner Danish · Vocabulary

Walk through any house and you pass all six of these. DØR is the door, PORT the gate, BOGREOL the bookshelf, LÆNESTOL the armchair, FEJEBAKKE the dustpan, and COMPUTER needs no explaining at all. The puzzle prints with a picture for each one, so your child matches picture to Danish word first, then follows the rows and columns until the letters line up and can be circled.

Three of these show how Danish assembles its vocabulary out of parts you can see. BOGREOL is book plus shelf. LÆNESTOL is a chair you lean in. FEJEBAKKE is a sweeping tray. Say them slowly and a child hears the joins for themselves. That is far more useful than memorising six unrelated words, because those same pieces reappear in dozens of other Danish nouns later on.

Household words earn their keep by being repeatable. Put the finished sheet on the fridge and use the words as you pass the objects — DØR on the way out, LÆNESTOL at bedtime. In a classroom it slots into a home-and-family topic. And DØR quietly keeps the letter Ø in front of children until it stops looking like a mistake and starts looking like Danish, which is worth a page on its own.
