{FREE} Preschool Pumpkin Mazes
This free Preschool Pumpkin Maze packet an be used two ways: as a maze or as a roll & cover game! It's perfect for fall or autumn themes!
The packet has ten mazes: 5 with a blank background and five with corn in the background as a distractor.
You can put the pumpkin mazes in a sheet protector or laminate them for repeated use. Simply use a dry erase marker and wipe it off with a paper towel when you're done! These mazes strengthen the small muscles in your children's hands and prepare them for more rigorous writing and cutting. You can also let older preschoolers cut along the pumpkin path or color in the blank rectangles!
To use as a roll & cover game, grab a die and give it a roll. Cover the number of pumpkins indicated with BINGO markers, beans, or candy corn! Your children can fill a page as a team together or you can give each child their own page, and let them race through the maze individually. Games like this strengthen counting skills and help develop a sense of 1-to-1 correspondence, which is important in learning to read and later math skills!
Happy Educating, Carla!
