Learn Swedish: Household Things – Picture Crossword for Kids

Pictures become Swedish words in this puzzle: your child sees the lamps, chairs and clocks, finds the right word in Swedish, and writes it one letter at a time into the boxes. Because every word is joined to another at a crossing, your child watches each individual letter as they write, practising Swedish spelling in the most natural way. At the same time their Swedish vocabulary grows, since each drawing brings along a new word. It is a puzzle for easy, unhurried thinking, with no pace to keep and nothing to tally. You can print it for free or open it online to play together. When all the boxes are full, your child has not only solved a grid but picked up a handful of fresh Swedish words.

Recognize, spell in Swedish, write it in: your child sees the lamps, chairs and clocks in the drawings, finds the right Swedish word, and enters it letter by letter into the grid. Each box takes a single letter, and the crossing Swedish words help one another along. That strengthens Swedish spelling and stretches their vocabulary — a comfortable puzzle with no pressure, free to print or to play online. Your child may erase and rethink a word whenever they wish, because in this puzzle all that matters is calm, curious thinking, one careful letter at a time. Swedish has three extra letters at the very end of its alphabet — a, a and o with little marks — that English does not use.

Has your child caught the joy of naming and spelling in Swedish? Then keep going! The crosswords about the Thanksgiving things and the ones with winter things hold fresh pictures, new Swedish words, and new crossings to puzzle over. And once your child is really in the swing of it, there is a whole free collection built around the household things — free to print or simply to play online. That way learning Swedish stays varied and gives a little fresh pleasure each day, all at your child’s own pace. Have fun discovering, writing, and puzzling together!
