Analogies Worksheet: Match the Pictures!

Identifying the relationship between two pictures and then finding a third picture that completes the same relationship teaches children ages 4-6 an early form of analogical reasoning, a skill that underlies much of later logical and mathematical thinking. Because children must first figure out an abstract relationship, like cause and effect or part to whole, before applying it to a new pair, this worksheet is more advanced than simple picture matching. Drawing a line to connect the completed analogy gives a clear, hands-on way to show their reasoning.
