Here are some helpful tips:

  • Find a picture of every kind of sport and make a collage. Write down the sports.
  • What sport do you do? And what about your friends?
  • Choose a new sport and take a lesson!

Sports Memory game

Find all the pairs in the game! The words are pronounced when the cards are turned over. If two identical cards are found, a short exercise appears. The cards are shown in large format, the spelling is shown, and the child can repeat the pronunciation with the push of a button.

Many children and parents play Memory together. In addition to learning new words, it is also a fun joint use of time.

Sports Puzzle game

In the puzzle game the children drag the pictures to the correct space. It is reminiscent of the old-fashioned wooden puzzle game with a modern twist.

If a picture has been dragged into the correct box, the corresponding word (with article) is pronounced. After 4 pictures have been placed, the child hears applause. The pictures are then highlighted one by one and the corresponding word is spoken again.

This game teaches children how to pronounce words and stimulates the development of hand-eye-coordination.
