Python installs with Tkinter on Windows and MacOS.

Try it.  Do an installation, bring up interactive Python, and
command
  import Tkinter 

Tkinter has a text (a uniquely potent one, in fact), a radio 
button, a check box, an entry (what is an "entry button"?).
It builds in a "grid geometry manager".  That might not be
the grid you're expecting, but we can get you from one to the
other.
