Learn Dutch: Farm Animals – Picture-Word Match for Kids

Pair by pair, your child brings order here. On one side wait the cows, pigs and goats as pictures; on the other, their Dutch names. Your child reads the Dutch vocabulary, thinks about which word fits which drawing, and draws a line between them. This calm joining task firms up Dutch 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 Dutch 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.

Which Dutch word goes with which picture? Your child joins the matching pairs: they study the cows, pigs and goats, read the Dutch names, and draw a line from each picture to the right word. With every connection it sinks in how the Dutch name of a familiar thing looks. So their Dutch vocabulary grows step by step, with no rush and in real calm. Your child may think as long as they need, discovering in the friendliest way what the things they already know are called in Dutch. Dutch likes to join small words together, so a single word can grow surprisingly long.

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