Learn German: More Birds – Picture-Word Match for Kids

Which German word goes with which picture? That is what your child works out here, by joining the matching pairs. On one side stand the parrots, swans and crows as drawings; opposite them their German names, pleasantly jumbled. Your child reads the German vocabulary, glances at the pictures, and then draws a line between a picture and its right word. With every connection they make, it sinks in a little more how the German name of a familiar thing looks and sounds. So their German vocabulary grows piece by piece, with no pressure and no rush. Let your child think and try in their own time; a line may always be drawn again. By the end, a line runs from every picture to the matching German word.

Read and connect, with nothing to search for: your child sees the parrots, swans and crows as pictures and a selection of German words beside them. They read the vocabulary, decide which name belongs, and draw a line from the picture to the matching German word. So they gently practise recognizing the written German word. It is a quiet task — free to print or to play online. A line may always be drawn again, because here all that matters is the easy thinking with which your child builds German vocabulary piece by piece. Here is something special about German: it gives every naming word a capital letter, even a small cat or a ball.

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