Ojo de Lince: Find Objects by Reading in Spanish

About Ojo de Lince

Ojo de lince is an educational hidden-object game where kids practice reading while having fun. A written word appears at the bottom, and you have to read it, understand what it means and find that picture among all the ones filling the scene. The vocabulary is simple and everyday: animals, school supplies, clothing and household items. That way reading is tied to comprehension, because recognizing the letters isn't enough: you have to know which object they name.

How to Play Ojo de Lince?

1. Read the word that appears below the scene.
2. Think about which object it is and look for it among all the pictures.
3. Click or tap on it to mark it.
4. Keep going with the next words until you've found them all.

The scene is full of colorful pictures that look a lot like each other, so you need a good eagle eye so you don't get mixed up. Since it's a game with no rush and no stressful timer, each child can go at their own pace, read calmly and try again if they make a mistake. For parents and teachers it's a very practical resource: it works as a vocabulary review, as a reading activity in the digital classroom or as an educational pastime at home. It's also very useful for students who are learning Spanish and need to connect words with images.
