How to use this worksheet

What this worksheet teaches
Repeating the same large maze may seem easy, but it helps children notice how their planning improves. Across 192 cells, they learn to recall key forks, avoid known dead ends and focus on a cleaner line. A dry-wipe marker also glides with less resistance, which trains a lighter, more controlled hand.
Play idea
Study one maze for thirty seconds, then draw the route from memory with the marker, peeking only at forks when unsure. Wipe the sheet, study again and see how many peeks you saved.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Can this maze really be reused?
Yes, once laminated or placed in a sleeve, the marker wipes off and the sheet is ready again.
Will my child just memorize the route?
Partly, which is useful; the challenge shifts to speed, neatness and recall.
Which marker should we use?
A fine-tip dry-wipe marker works best on the narrow corridors of a 16×12 grid.
