You enjoy teaching, puzzles, creative activities, or making learning playful and approachable.
One small original activity book for a defined age and skill, with clear directions, suitable writing space, tested answers and a print-ready proof.
Pacing
Follow the seven-day starter journey. The faster First Money Move is optional; keep its goal without rushing permissions or safety.
A finished sample, a clear proposal and honest feedback are progress. A sale, platform acceptance or earnings are never guaranteed.
1. What am I selling?
One small original activity book for a defined age and skill, with clear directions, suitable writing space, tested answers and a print-ready proof.
2. Who will buy it?
Parents, caregivers, educators, homeschool families, and organizations seeking children’s activities. Start with the specific customer and deliverable below rather than offering every possible service.
3. Where do I find those buyers?
Ask an adult caregiver or educator about a specific practice need and request feedback on fictional sample pages; do not collect children’s contact details.
4. Which software and tools do I use?
Create consistent pages in Google Slides at the intended print size. Complete every activity yourself, check answer keys, export and test print before offering copies.
5. How do I create my first product or service?
Write short instructions. Use readable layouts and leave room for answers, drawing, or marking choices. Count objects and independently solve every answer key.
6. Where do I publish, list, or promote it?
Deliver the approved files privately through a named-recipient Google Drive folder or the agreed marketplace order. Promote only samples you have permission to share.
7. How do I get paid?
Sell printable downloads or printed books. Profit remains after production, platform fees, and expenses. Set the fee and payment stages in writing; verify actual funds in your own eligible business account.
8. What should I accomplish in my first seven days?
Finish one manageable educational activity books sample or authorized task, check its quality, approach a relevant customer and record the result without assuming a sale.

2. Where to Find Customers and How the Transaction Works
Start with one audience and a small, clearly defined offer. Use an official contact route; do not harvest or buy contact lists.
State target age, skill, contents and format accurately. Calculate printing and delivery costs, check platform page requirements and proof before print sales.
A focused first customer
Ask an adult caregiver or educator about a specific practice need and request feedback on fictional sample pages; do not collect children’s contact details.
Create consistent pages in Google Slides at the intended print size. Complete every activity yourself, check answer keys, export and test print before offering copies.
Count objects and independently solve every answer key.
Check reading level, contrast, pencil space and safe age-appropriate tasks.
Getting paid: Sell printable downloads or printed books. Profit remains after production, platform fees, and expenses. Agree price, included work, due dates and any expenses before proceeding; a sample or inquiry is not a paid order.
Safety: Do not claim learning gains, therapy benefits or curriculum approval without evidence. Avoid unsafe activities and copyrighted characters; adult feedback is not formal educational certification.
A clear transaction and handover
Once there is interest, write down exactly what is included: One small original activity book for a defined age and skill, with clear directions, suitable writing space, tested answers and a print-ready proof.
State target age, skill, contents and format accurately. Calculate printing and delivery costs, check platform page requirements and proof before print sales.
For a direct service, use an eligible business invoicing method such as PayPal: create an invoice, identify the customer and deliverables, review charges and terms, then send. Follow marketplace payment rules for marketplace sales.
Verify page order, print margins and every illustration license.
Getting paid: Check fees, availability, tax and refund obligations for your location and channel. Track received payments separately from quotes; never rely on a payment screenshot or pay to unlock a customer payment.
Safety: Check activity-specific licenses, insurance and local requirements with the relevant authority before accepting work. No platform listing, tool account or sample removes those obligations.
