About Parent Oven
Parent Oven is a small, independent website for families. It started as a toy and gift shop for children, and today it also makes free printable worksheets, picture quizzes, stories and wishes for parents.
How Parent Oven started
Parent Oven began as a shop for children’s toys, books and gifts. We sometimes took the shop to pop-up fairs, where we meet parents and children face to face and hear what their children enjoy.
The free resources grew out of the shop: simple, good-quality printables, quizzes and stories that families can use at home without paying or signing up.
What you will find here
- Free printable worksheets: alphabet and number tracing, phonics, sight words, CVC words, grammar and maths, plus seasonal packs for Halloween, Diwali and Children’s Day.
- Play & Learn quizzes: tap-to-answer picture quizzes about animals, birds, flowers, planets, shapes and more, each with a matching worksheet.
- Stories for children, and wishes and quotes for birthdays, festivals and baby milestones.
- A parenting blog with practical, everyday ideas for parents.
How our free printables are made and checked
- Designed in-house. Every worksheet is laid out by us, not copied from other sites. Tracing letters are single-line, dotted centre lines that show children exactly where the pencil goes, and the print letters use the simple a and g shapes children are taught to write.
- Printed and tested. Sheets are printed on A4 paper and checked on paper, not just on screen: Is the text big enough? Do the pictures match the words? Do the answer keys match the questions?
- Corrected when parents tell us. When a parent or teacher spots a mistake or something that does not work for their child, we fix the sheet and upload a new version. Recent fixes include clearer tracing letters, sharper pictures and pictures that better match their words.
- Free to use. Everything is free for home and classroom use, with no sign-up. If you share a worksheet, please share the page link rather than re-uploading the PDF.
A note about our articles
Parent Oven is run by a parent-focused small business, not by doctors or child psychologists. Our blog posts are general ideas from everyday family life. They are not medical, health or professional advice: for questions about your child’s health, development or behaviour, please talk to your paediatrician or another qualified professional.
