Step-by-step

Build your first sheet in 4 steps

Open Google AI Studio (free, no card)

Go to aistudio.google.com and sign in with any Google account. In the model dropdown, choose Gemini 2.5 Flash. That is the model on the permanent free tier β€” no billing, no credit card.

Pick your input

You have two zero-friction options: (a) type a short sentence of your child's grade and interests, or (b) click the image button and upload a photo of their drawing. Gemini's free tier reads both text and images, so a crayon sketch becomes a story + worksheet.

Send a prompt (copy one below)

Scroll to the prompt cards, hit Copy, paste into the chat, and fill the {brackets}. Ask for Markdown so you can drop it straight into Google Docs or Word and print.

Print it, then reuse the prompt

Paste the model's Markdown into a document, print, and you're done. Save the prompt in a note so next time it's a 10-second paste. One child's weekly sheets use a fraction of the 1,500/day free allowance β€” you will not hit the cap.

Copy-paste prompts

Four prompts that just work

Replace the {brackets} with your child's details. Every prompt asks for printable Markdown so the output drops straight into a word processor.

1 Β· Spelling & sight-word sheet
You are an elementary educator. My child is in {GRADE} grade and loves {INTERESTS}.
Create a one-page spelling & sight-word practice sheet with:
(1) 10 spelling words themed around {INTERESTS}, each with a kid-friendly definition;
(2) a "trace and write" line for each word;
(3) a fill-in-the-blank sentence for 3 of the words;
(4) an answer key at the bottom.
Output as clean Markdown I can paste into a word processor and print.
2 Β· Math drill sheet
I'm supporting a {GRADE} grader. Build a 12-problem {TOPIC} math drill
(e.g., two-digit addition with regrouping) themed around {INTERESTS}.
Include: a worked example at the top, the 12 problems numbered, and a separate answer key.
Keep it to one printable page. Output as Markdown.
3 Β· Word search & activity page
Make a printable "activity page" for a {AGE}-year-old who loves {INTERESTS}. Include:
(a) a 10x10 word search grid (letters only, single spaces between) with 8 hidden words
    related to {INTERESTS}, plus the word list;
(b) a short "I Spy" list of 6 things to find in a drawing they make;
(c) one open-ended drawing prompt.
Output the word search as a monospaced grid I can copy into a document.
4 Β· Drawing β†’ story + questions
I uploaded a photo of my child's drawing. Describe what you see in 2 sentences a {AGE}-year-old
would enjoy. Then turn it into:
(1) a 4-sentence silly story starring the drawing's characters;
(2) 3 reading-comprehension questions with answers;
(3) a "finish the picture" instruction.
Keep language at a {GRADE} reading level. Output as Markdown.

Honest limits

What breaks

⚠ Read this before you rely on it

  • Quota is real but not infinite: ~1,500 requests/day and 15/minute on the free tier. Fine for a family; do not script bulk generation.
  • Free-tier data may train models: avoid pasting your child's full name, school, or address. Use a first name or "my kid" and generic interests.
  • Text, not pixel-perfect graphics: word-search letter grids and problems come through cleanly; the model will not reliably draw mazes or images. Treat output as text to print.
  • Models make mistakes: always eyeball math problems and answer keys before handing them over.
  • No autosave: chats aren't kept unless you save them β€” copy the good prompts into a notes app.
  • Needs a Google account + internet: it is a hosted web tool, not an offline app.

Get started

Three things to build in the next 10 minutes

Tap each card to reveal the idea. All three are free on the same Google AI Studio tier.

A spelling sheet from their favorite movie +
Drop the movie/show into Prompt 1's {INTERESTS}. You get themed words, definitions, and an answer key your kid actually wants to finish.
A word search from their hobby +
Prompt 3 turns "dinosaurs" or "soccer" into a 10Γ—10 grid plus an I-Spy list β€” a quiet, screen-free activity for a car ride.
A story page from their own art +
Upload a drawing photo (Prompt 4). It becomes a silly story + comprehension questions that build reading confidence.
