Learn Swedish: Feelings – Picture Crossword for Kids

Naming things and spelling them — that is what your child practises here, in Swedish. They look at the smiling, sad and surprised faces, work out what each is called in Swedish, and enter it letter by letter into the grid. Because each box holds exactly one letter, your child naturally attends to every sound and every quirk of Swedish spelling. Where two words cross, the shared letter has to match, so Swedish vocabulary and writing come together as they puzzle. Your child may hardly notice how much early Swedish they are absorbing along the way. Puzzling, guessing, writing — without any rush and without any contest, simply at their own speed, until the final Swedish word slides neatly into the grid.

A picture, a Swedish word, plenty of boxes: your child names the smiling, sad and surprised faces and writes the matching Swedish word in letter by letter. Spelling matters at every step, since the words interlock and share letters where they meet. This is Swedish spelling made hands-on and a friendly vocabulary practice all in one. With no score to chase, your child may puzzle, erase, and reconsider until the whole grid stands. And when the last word lands, the proud look at a completed puzzle belongs entirely to them. 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 bakery treats and the ones with Christmas 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 feelings — 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!
