Kids Activity Book Generator for Amazon KDP

In this tutorial you see how a kids activity book is built with several puzzle types, from the choice of the puzzles to the finished file.

For each puzzle type, the Kids Mixed wizard starts with a size for each age group. These are the default settings, and you can change them in the wizard.

Want to see one puzzle type by itself? Try the free kids Sudoku generator or the free kids maze generator.

• Sudoku, word searches and mazes in one book, with the puzzle types you choose.
• Three age groups, 4-6, 6-8 and 8-10 years, each with its own number of puzzles and its own sizes.
• A choice between shuffled puzzles, and sections in the order you set by dragging and dropping.
• Word searches with random words or with one or several themed categories.
• The level shown in the titles, on separator pages, or not at all, for each puzzle type.
• An optional "How to Play" page for each puzzle type.
• Solution pages for your puzzles.
• A book in English, French, Spanish, German or Italian, on 8.5 x 11 or 6 x 9 inch pages.
• Margins you set yourself, a page counter that compares your book with the page limit of your plan, a visual editor, then a PDF or an editable PPTX file.

1. Book settings. Choose the language, enter the title, select the page size and set the margins.
2. Puzzle types. Pick Sudoku, word searches, mazes, or all three.
3. Set up each type. Choose a single level or several age groups, the number of puzzles and the sizes, and for word searches the words or categories.
4. Order and layout. Shuffle the puzzles or set the order of the sections, then check the page counter against your plan.
5. Generate, edit and export. Generate the book, adjust the pages in the visual editor, then download a PDF or a PPTX file.

The adult version of this wizard is explained in our mixed puzzle book guide.

• Say the age range clearly in the title and on the cover. Parents often look for a book that matches the age of their child.
• Start each section gently. Put the easiest puzzles first, so that a child finishes the first pages alone and wants to continue.
• Use variety on purpose. A book that alternates Sudoku, word searches and mazes keeps a child interested longer than a long section of the same puzzle.
• Keep the instructions short. A short "How to Play" page for each puzzle type helps a child who meets a puzzle for the first time.
• Keep the solutions, so that a parent can check a puzzle when a child is stuck.
• Think about a series. Three books, one for each age group, are easier to explain and to promote than one book that tries to cover every age.

Margin requirements depend on your trim size and page count, so check the official Amazon KDP guidelines and preview your file in the KDP previewer before you publish.
