Maze: medium (ages 6-7)
How to use this worksheet
- Print the page and laminate it, or slide it into a clear plastic sleeve.
- Solve the maze with a dry-erase marker and remove mistakes with a tissue instead of an eraser.
- After finishing, wipe the whole sheet and challenge a sibling or friend to solve it.
What this worksheet teaches
A reusable maze removes the worry of a messy page, so children experiment more freely. Solving the same layout several times shows how a route becomes familiar with practice. Planning, scanning and line control still get a workout, and the marker needs a light hand to avoid smudging.
Play idea
Keep the laminated maze in the car or a travel bag with the marker tied on by a string. It becomes a reusable activity for any wait, from the dentist to the checkout line.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
We have no laminator at home. What else works?
A clear plastic sheet protector does the same job and is easy to find.
Won't my child simply memorize the route?
After a few rounds, yes; then print a new medium maze from the series and pass the laminated one to a younger sibling.
Which marker is best?
A fine-tip dry-erase marker leaves a clear line inside the corridors of a 12 by 9 grid.
