Maze: medium (ages 6-7)
How to use this worksheet
- Crease the sheet down the middle, show only the first maze and lean it on a hardback book or a magazine from the rack.
- Pack a pencil stub or a golf pencil; long pencils tend to roll off laps and under the chairs.
- When the nurse calls your name, add a quick dot where the line stopped.
What this worksheet teaches
Each 12×9 maze asks a child aged 6 to 8 to plan several turns ahead and remember which corridors are already ruled out. Returning to a half-finished route after an interruption exercises working memory and visual scanning, and drawing a clean line on a lap is good practice in light pencil pressure.
Play idea
Let your child be the doctor and the maze the patient. Before drawing, they examine every corridor with a fingertip like a stethoscope and announce a diagnosis, such as "three blocked tunnels near the top". The cure is the pencil line from entrance to exit. Playing doctor first often makes the real check-up feel less strange.
