tkinter configure entry's pady

I am trying to configure the "pady" keyword of entries that I have stored in a dictionary. But an error occurs every time I try to configure the pady keyword.

    for i in range(1, 4):
        temp = Entry(self.right_child, width=9)
        temp.insert(END, i)

        self.entries[f'{name}{i}'] = temp

        temp.grid(row=row, column=i-1, padx=(0,2), pady=(0,2))

All of my attempts shown below raises the same error

tkinter.TclError: unknown option "-pady"

Here are my attempts:

self.entries['Afkastnignsgrad,%1']['pady'] = (0,25)         # 1
self.entries['Afkastnignsgrad,%1'].configure(pady = (0,25)) # 2
self.entries['Afkastningsgrad,%1'].config(pady = (0,25))    # 3

The error message is telling you exactly what the problem is: pady is not a valid option for an entry widget. pady is an option for the grid (and pack) command.

If you want to change the padding for a widget that was added to the display with grid, you must use grid_configure. For example:

self.entries['Afkastnignsgrad,%1'].grid_configure(pady=(0,25))
