Printable Mazes & Dot-to-Dots

Makes maze and dot-to-dot activity pages for children and prints them on A4 or Letter paper. You choose the difficulty and the number of pages for use at home or in a classroom.

How to use

1. On the "Mazes" tab, pick a difficulty under "Size", then set "Maze style", "Mazes per page" and "Pages".
2. Press "Make new mazes" for a different set. With "Add answer pages at the end" on, the solutions print on separate pages.
3. On the "Dot-to-dot" tab, choose a "Built-in shape" or draw a line in the box with "My drawing", then set "Number of dots" and "Dot labels".
4. Check the "Preview", choose "Paper" and "Orientation", and press "Print".

How it works

• Mazes range from 5 × 5 to 40 × 40 cells and have exactly one path from start to finish. Depth-first gives a long winding path; Prim and Kruskal give many branches.
• The same "Maze number (seed)" always makes the same maze. Up to 10 pages can be made at once.
• Dot-to-dot has 10 built-in shapes, such as a star, a heart, a house and a fish, with 3 to 80 dots labelled 1 2 3 or A B C.

Questions and answers

What maze size suits my child's age?

There is no fixed rule. Start at "very easy" (5 × 5) and move up one level when your child solves it without trouble.

Can the maze be solved on screen?

Yes. Under "Solve on screen", drag from the start through the corridors or use the arrow keys. It shows the first maze of the set.

Can I turn a child's drawing into a dot-to-dot?

Choose "My drawing" and draw one line in the box. Numbered dots are placed evenly along the line.

How do I print the same maze again?

Write down the "Maze number (seed)". The same number with the same settings makes the same maze.
