The learning connection
Constructing and solving a maze engages embodied cognition, allowing kids to physically navigate paths. This interactive exploration creates a rich context for learning spatial reasoning, making it easier to remember and apply these skills in real life.
Try it with your learner
1. Use a large sheet of cardboard to draw a maze layout. 2. Cut out walls using scissors to create pathways. 3. Place a small toy or coin at the start of the maze. 4. Try to navigate the toy through the maze and reach the end. 5. Time yourself and try to improve your speed in 3 rounds! 6. Share your maze with a family member and let them try it too!
