Learn Portuguese: Birds – Picture-Word Match for Kids

Which Portuguese name goes with which picture? Your child answers that with a single line. They look at the robins, owls and ducks, read the Portuguese words on offer, and join each drawing to the right word. Along the way they learn how the Portuguese 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 Portuguese word and the whole match is complete.

This match brings pictures and Portuguese words together. Your child sees the robins, owls and ducks and the Portuguese names beside them, each looking for its partner. They read, compare, and link each picture with the right line. So a gentle bridge into Portuguese appears. Because nothing has to be written, it is all reading and recognizing — at their own pace, with no stress. Let your child reconsider as often as they like, until a clean line runs from every picture to the matching Portuguese word. Portuguese adds little marks to some letters, like the curly a in "ã", which gives the word a soft nasal sound.

Has your child had so much fun connecting? Then there is plenty more to discover! The matches about the sweet treats and the ones with fruit hold fresh pictures and new Portuguese 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 Portuguese stays varied and gives a little fresh pleasure each day, all at your child’s own pace. Have fun reading, thinking, and connecting together!
