Maze: medium (ages 6-7)
How to use this worksheet
- Laminate the page or slip it into a clear plastic sleeve, and tape the edges so the marker cannot slide underneath.
- Use a fine-tip dry-wipe marker; a thick one blocks the corridors of the 12×9 grid.
- Solve the maze once as normal, then wipe it with a dry cloth ready for the next challenge.
What this worksheet teaches
A wipe-clean maze lowers the fear of mistakes, because a wrong turn disappears in a second. Solving the same layout with new challenges each time teaches children aged 6 to 8 to adapt a plan they already know, and the smooth surface asks for extra control, as a marker glides faster than a pencil.
Play idea
Hide treasure. A parent draws two or three small stars in different cells with the marker, some of them deep inside dead ends. Your child must collect every star on the way from the entrance to the exit, which means planning detours. Wipe, place new stars and play again.
