Learn Dutch: Reptiles and Amphibians – Picture-Word Match for Kids

Which Dutch name goes with which picture? Your child answers that with a single line. They look at the frogs, snakes and turtles, read the Dutch words on offer, and join each drawing to the right word. Along the way they learn how the Dutch names of familiar things look in writing, tying the picture to the written word. This kind of practice is quiet and friendly, because it is all about reading and matching — not about writing anything yourself. Let your child think as long as they need; a connection may be redrawn at any moment. The loveliest moment is when a line runs from every picture to its matching Dutch word and the whole match is complete.

Which Dutch name goes with which picture? Your child answers with a single line: they look at the frogs, snakes and turtles, read the Dutch words, and join each drawing to the right one. So they learn along the way how Dutch names look in writing. A line may be redrawn at any moment. The loveliest moment is when every connection is in place. Until then your child may read and think entirely in their own rhythm, because here there is neither a clock nor a single right pace to keep. 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 hospital things and the ones with pets 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 reptiles 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!
