About this worksheet

This route changes direction 58 times, more often than any other maze in the series. Seventy-nine squares, and very nearly every one of them a corner. Worth warning a child before they start that the way through is never going to run straight for long.

Twelve cells across brings the corridors down to about one and a third centimeters. At that width the pencil work is genuinely part of the difficulty, so these sheets suit a child who has already stopped needing to rest their whole hand on the page to draw a straight line.

The way through runs 79 squares and turns 58 times, with 16 dead ends branching off it. The grid is carved so that exactly one route connects the start to the finish: no loops, no second way round, and no corner walled off from the rest. Every square can be reached, and a child who follows the route carefully will always get there.

How to use this sheet

Trace the route with a finger first, then go over it with a pencil. Separating the thinking from the pencil work means neither one spoils the other.
