Why we built Jolly Grid
Our founder went looking for coloring pages for her four-year-old and kept landing on sites full of pop-ups, fake download buttons and redirects. Jolly Grid is what she built instead: free tools and printables for schools, kids and parents, with no ads.
How it started
Our founder is a mom, and her daughter loves coloring. It's their thing on rainy afternoons and quiet weekends.
Finding something to print was the hard part. Every search led to the same kind of site: pop-up after pop-up, misleading download buttons, redirects to other sites, and ads that covered the whole screen, all to get one coloring page.
“Why does getting a worksheet for my kid have to feel like navigating a minefield?”
