A Picture Matching Puzzle With Silhouettes
Tap a colourful picture, then tap the shadow with the same outline. A silhouette has no colour or detail, so children must look at the shape alone, which turns a simple matching game into a small logic puzzle. Baby level starts with three pairs and Hard goes up to six.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you play Shadow Match?
Tap a colourful picture on the top row, then tap the shadow that matches its shape on the bottom row. When you pair them correctly, they lock in place. Match every pair to win!
Is Shadow Match good for toddlers?
Yes! Baby level uses only 3 pairs — perfect for toddlers aged 2–4. Easy and Medium add more pairs for preschoolers; Hard mode challenges older children with 6 pairs.
What skills does Shadow Match teach?
Shadow Match helps children practise visual discrimination, matching objects to outlines, and recognising the same shape in different styles — important early learning skills.
Is Shadow Match a puzzle game for kids?
