Learn Italian: Winter – Picture-Word Match for Kids

In this picture-word match your child links each drawing to the right Italian word, simply by drawing a line from the picture to its name. On one side are the snowflakes, mittens and scarves as pictures; on the other are the Italian words that go with them. Your child looks at a drawing, reads through the Italian vocabulary, and decides which name belongs to it. So they learn to connect a picture with its written Italian name — a soft, happy first step into the language. There is nothing to spell and nothing to search for, only reading, thinking, and joining. Let your child work at their own pace: no timer and no score, just one picture at a time matched to the right Italian word with a single line.
