Learn Swedish: Furniture – Picture-Word Match for Kids

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

Pair by pair, your child brings order: they match the furniture with their Swedish names. Your child reads the words, thinks, and draws a line between picture and word. This calm joining task firms up Swedish vocabulary, because the written word keeps coming together with the right picture. Let your child puzzle in peace, with no pace and no score. You can print the match for free or open it online with your child to play, as often as the urge to connect returns. 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 had so much fun connecting? Then there is plenty more to discover! The matches about the supermarket things and the ones with breakfast foods hold fresh pictures and new Swedish words looking for their partners. And once your child is in the swing of it, a whole free collection built around the furniture is ready to go — 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 reading, thinking, and connecting together!
