Custom printable flashcards from your child's own material

A spelling list or times tables sent home as a PDF is hard to turn into study cards by hand, which is why many parents go looking for free printable flashcards for kids that match the actual lesson rather than a generic set.

Upload a PDF, Word file, slide deck, notes or a photo of a worksheet.
Get flashcards written from that material, not a generic template.
Study free in the browser with spaced repetition scheduling.
Export a printable PDF or Anki deck on the Plus plan.

Example flashcards for kids: letters, math and science

How many legs does a spider have?Eight. Insects have six legs, so a spider is not an insect.

What sound does the letter B make?/b/, as in ball and bat.

What is 6 x 4?24. Four groups of six or six groups of four both equal 24.

What do plants need to make food?Sunlight, water and carbon dioxide from the air, through photosynthesis.

What is the capital of Canada?Ottawa, not Toronto or Montreal.

Built from your own files

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner and easy ones spread out, so practice time goes to the facts that need it.

Print or export on Plus

Study in the browser on the free plan. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export so you can print a set for the fridge or the car.

How it works

Upload the material

Add the PDF, slides, notes or a photo of the page. No credit card is needed to start.

Review the cards

DeckOwl generates flashcards from the content. Trim or keep the ones that fit your child's level.

Study or print

Practice in the browser for free, or export a PDF to print with the Plus plan.

DeckOwl reads the file you already have and writes question-and-answer cards from it. The free plan gives you 3 generations per month and lets you study in the browser. If you want a printable version, PDF export is part of Plus at $39/year or $7.99/month.

Keep sessions short and let your child answer before flipping each card. Small sets reviewed often tend to work better for young learners than one long stack.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should a child study at one time?

Young learners usually do better with short sets reviewed often than with long stacks. Start with a small batch from one lesson and add more as they become comfortable.

How can a parent help a child use flashcards?

Read each card aloud together, have your child say the answer before turning the card over, and keep each session brief. Repeating the cards they missed helps most.

Can I print my flashcards as a PDF for free?

The free plan lets you study in the browser, but PDF export is included in Plus. Plus costs $39/year or $7.99/month.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. You can start on the free plan without a credit card and make up to 3 generations per month.
