Maze Sheet and Maze Worksheet Maker
Print maze activity sheets with a name line and instructions, for one child or a whole class.
A maze sheet is a printed page of mazes for a child to solve with a pencil, and this free maze worksheet tool makes them in your web browser. There is nothing to install and no sign-up, and each maze is made on your own device, so nothing is uploaded. Use it for one maze activity sheet or a whole class set, printed or saved as a PDF.
The page opens with a Worksheet layout: a title, a Name and Date line, and two mazes per page at Easy difficulty. Kid-friendly mode is on by default, which gives thicker walls and wider paths for young children. You can change the difficulty, number of mazes and paper size. On the Design tab the mazes can also be circles or picture shapes such as a pumpkin or a dinosaur, for a maze worksheet for kindergarten or a higher grade.
How to use the Maze Worksheet Tool
- Choose a difficulty above the preview: Very easy, Easy, Medium or Hard. For children in kindergarten, start with Very easy or Easy.
- On the Print tab (open when the page loads), set Mazes per page (1, 2 or 4 in the Worksheet layout) and Number of pages (1 to 20).
- Type a title in the Title field, up to 60 characters. Leave it empty to use the default title.
- Pick US Letter or A4 for Paper size.
- Kid-friendly (thicker walls, wider paths) is on for young children; turn it off under More options on the Design tab for older children who can draw fine lines.
- Turn on Add answer pages if you want a solution sheet after the maze pages.
- Click New maze to get a different maze with the same settings. Click Show solution to draw the route in red.
- Check the preview of page 1 or the answer page (switch with Puzzle page and Answer page), then click Print / Save as PDF.

Why are mazes good for kids?
Mazes ask a child to follow one line from a start point to a finish point without crossing walls. This practises visual tracking, the skill of following a line with the eyes across a busy page. Each time a child reaches a dead end and turns back, they practise planning, testing one route and then choosing another. Bigger mazes simply need more of this, which is why the difficulty buttons make the grid larger.
Drawing the route also builds fine motor skills. A child has to control a pencil or crayon, slow down near corners, and keep the line inside the path. Thicker walls and wider paths, as used in kid-friendly mode, make this easier for beginners and let them build confidence before they move to narrower paths.
How do I make a maze worksheet for my class?
Every maze on this tool is built from a seed, and the same seed and settings always produce the same maze. This matters for a class, because you do not want two children with the same puzzle, and you do want to be able to reprint the set later. The tool gives each maze in a printed set its own seed, derived from the set’s seed. The footer of each page shows the site name and that seed, so you can record it and print the same set again.
For a class of about 40 children, you could print 4 mazes per page for 10 pages. This gives 40 different mazes, with answer pages at the end for quick checking. Choose a difficulty that suits the youngest group first, then use Medium or Hard for the group that finishes early. Each maze is labelled with its number and difficulty, for example “Maze 3 · Easy”, and the answer pages use the same numbers, so checking a stack of sheets is quick.
Frequently asked questions
Is it free?
Yes. The tool runs in your web browser and is free to use. There is no sign-up and nothing to install.
Can I print the answers?
Yes. Turn on Add answer pages in the Print tab. The answer pages come after the maze pages and show the solution in red, so you can print them for a teacher or parent.
Does it work on a phone or tablet?
It runs in the web browser, so you can open it on a phone or tablet with a modern browser. Saving a PDF uses the browser’s print dialog, so the exact steps may look a little different from a computer.
Can I make the same maze again?
Yes. Every maze is built from a seed, and the same seed and settings always give the same maze. Use Copy link to keep the exact maze or set, or note the seed printed in the page footer and reprint it later. Click New maze if you want a different maze with the same settings.
How do I save maze worksheets as a PDF?
Set up your mazes in the Print tab, check the preview, then click Print / Save as PDF. In the browser print dialog, choose Save as PDF as the destination. The file contains your mazes and, if you turned it on, the answer pages.
