Maze: medium (ages 6-7)
How to use this worksheet
- Laminate the printed page; a clear plastic document wallet makes a quick substitute.
- Solve the 12×9 maze with a fine dry-wipe marker, since thick tips can blur the narrow corridors.
- Wipe the sheet with a soft cloth when finished, ready for the next child or the next challenge.
What this worksheet teaches
Laminated or not, the 12×9 grid still has 108 cells and one correct way through. On repeat attempts, children can shift the focus from finding the path to drawing it more smoothly or more quickly. A slippery marker on a glossy surface also demands a lighter, more controlled hand than pencil on paper.
Play idea
Turn the sheet a quarter turn before each new round. The route stays the same, but seen from a new angle it feels surprisingly different, and your child has to plan it again instead of drawing from memory.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Is a laminated maze still a challenge after the first solution?
The route never changes, so later rounds work best with a new goal, such as a turned sheet or a neater line, and a new player meets the maze fresh.
Which marker works best?
A fine-tip dry-wipe marker, which keeps the line inside the 12×9 corridors and wipes off cleanly.
Can this sheet go in a classroom activity box?
Yes, once laminated it can be passed from pupil to pupil and used many times without reprinting.
