Cornfield Maze

Stump your friends! Create challenging mazes through the cornfields in crisp fall colors.

1. Draw a maze using Crayola® Colored Pencils. Fill a whole sheet of construction paper. Include twists and turns, dead ends, loops, and tricky places. You're drawing a map designed to confuse your friends!

2. Outline the maze path with corn stalks filled with ripe ears of corn, tassels, shucks, and drying leaves. You'll probably use lots of yellows, greens, and browns.

3. Swap finished puzzles with your friends, and find your ways through each other's mazes.

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project.

"Kids discover their rural roots here. They can shell corn, grind corn, and pop corn. Making corn mazes is a popular choice."
Marge K., museum docent.

"After we walked through a corn maze, our kids recreated the place where they had so much fun."
Chris and Jason P., parents of 9- and 11-year-olds.
