Learn how to create your own maze. This project also has an instructional video available!

Steps

• Step 1
  Gridded paper is terrific for drawing mazes. For a simple maze, use 4x4 grid paper. For a more complex maze, use 8x8 grid paper. With a pencil, draw a start and finish box for your maze on a piece of grid paper. Draw a path from the start box to the finish box. Leave some spaces open for gateways to more paths.


• Step 2
  Trace over the path with a black pen or fine point marker.



• Step 3
  Using the open spaces, pencil in more paths, making sure they finish in dead ends.



• Step 4
  Continue filling the open spaces with more paths.



• Step 5
  Trace over the false paths with the pen or marker. Your maze is now ready to solve!



• Step 6
  Make a photocopy and use a brightly colored marker to fill in the solution path.
