Here Are Just A Few Ideas For Using Our Squared Paper Templates:

If your child is struggling with their maths homework using square paper can help! The squares make aligning columns and numbers much easier, giving your child more confidence whether they’re doing simple addition or complicated algebra. It’s also a great way to teach children how to plot data points on a graph.
Do you love to be organised? Square paper can help anyone organise their writing better, and is ideal for creating bullet journals, calendars, mood logs, habit trackers and much more.
Square paper isn’t just a useful tool for maths and science – it’s ideal for creative projects too! Children can create their own pattern by coloring in the squares, or make a design that can be used for fuse beads on a peg board.
Are you a keen crafter? Square paper is great when working any craft or DIY project that needs symmetry or precise measurements, from sewing to woodwork.
Square paper can help children who struggle with handwriting, as the gridlines are a useful guide to keep spacing and letter formation consistent.
Looking a fun game to keep kids busy on a journey? How about a fun game of dots and boxes? This game works best with two players, and each player takes turns to connect two adjacent dots with a vertical or horizontal line. When a player completes a box shape, they have ‘captured’ that box and can write their initial inside. They then get another turn until they are unable to capture more boxes, and play passes to their opponent. When all boxes have been captured, the player with the most boxes is the winner!
Square paper templates can help both adults and children with brainstorming sessions and problem-solving. Write down ideas and connect the square to create mind maps.
Origami is a fun activity for children and adults, and using squared paper templates is a great way for beginners to get started.
