About

Who makes these, and why they're free.

I'm a dad. Math Picnic began as practice sheets for my own kids. When we got to reading I wanted the same kind of thing for phonics, couldn't find one I liked, and made Phonics Picnic. Grammar Picnic came after that. Reading and logic are next.

Each one has its own address and sticks to one subject. This page just collects them, so if you've used one you can find the rest.

The same rules everywhere

They're free, and they'll stay free. There are no ads. Nobody signs in, so there's nothing about your child to collect, and children's answers and scores aren't sent anywhere. You open the page and start. They're meant to work on a classroom projector, and the worksheets print. You can photocopy them for the children you teach.

Why free

A worksheet or a phonics drill shouldn't need a subscription, and children shouldn't have to look at ads to use one. These sites don't cost much to run, and I'd rather they got used. I'll keep them going for as long as I can.

About AI

I used AI to help write the code. That's how one person can build this much. It doesn't decide whether a word is split right or a recording sounds right; I check those against sources and by listening. Sentences and answers are checked too. Mistakes still get through sometimes, and I'd rather fix one than add a new page.

Contact

If you find a mistake or have an idea, write to hello@thepicnics.org. If a Picnic has been useful, the best thing you can do is tell another parent or teacher.
