Learn Spanish: Tools – Picture-Word Match for Kids

Which Spanish word goes with which picture? That is what your child works out here, by joining the matching pairs. On one side stand the hammers, saws and wrenches as drawings; opposite them their Spanish names, pleasantly jumbled. Your child reads the Spanish 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 Spanish name of a familiar thing looks and sounds. So their Spanish 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 Spanish word.

Which Spanish name goes with which picture? Your child answers with a single line: they look at the hammers, saws and wrenches, read the Spanish words, and join each drawing to the right one. So they learn along the way how Spanish 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. One friendly thing about Spanish: the words are said almost exactly the way they are written.

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 Spanish words looking for their partners. And once your child is in the swing of it, a whole free collection built around the tools is ready to go — free to print or simply to play online. That way learning Spanish stays varied and gives a little fresh pleasure each day, all at your child’s own pace. Have fun reading, thinking, and connecting together!
