About this worksheet

A turtle is the right animal for the page that rewards going slowly. The route winds almost continuously — 57 squares with 35 changes of direction, which is barely two squares straight before it turns again. Children who like to draw fast come off the line here, which is the whole argument for tracing it with a finger first.

Turtles are slow on land but move easily in water, which is why a pond is where this one is heading. Many pond turtles climb onto logs or rocks to bask in the sun and warm up. The route winds almost the whole way, so let the turtle set the pace: slow, steady and careful beats quick and messy on this page.

There is exactly one way through: no loops, and no square cut off from the rest.

How to use this sheet

Remind your child that the turtle wins by going slowly. Trace the full way with a finger before any pencil work, then draw it in short sections, pausing every few corners. The corridors are a little over one and a half centimeters wide, so a sharp pencil helps.
