Maze: The Princess Looks for Her Lost Crown — Ages 4–5
How to use this worksheet
- Find the princess at the start of the maze and the crown at the finish.
- Tiptoe a finger through the castle hallways to the crown, then draw the princess's path in pencil without touching the walls.
- Big hallways and a small number of turns make the princess's search easy to follow for a four-year-old.
What this worksheet teaches
Guiding the princess through a 5 × 4 grid helps a four- or five-year-old practice looking ahead, spot a hallway that ends and keep a steady line between wide walls. Finding the lost crown is a satisfying goal.
Play idea
Make a paper crown and decorate it with jewels made of colored dots.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Where was the crown?
On a cushion at the end of the maze — your child leads the princess straight to it.
What if my child gets stuck?
Walk the princess back to the last hallway she turned into and try the one next to it.
How long does it take?
About three to five minutes for a four-year-old; if it takes longer, split it into “rooms” and cheer as the princess passes each one.
