School Maze – Free Printable PDF Activity for Kids

In this engaging maze, kids follow three colorful backpacks—red, green, and blue—as they search for the right path leading to the school building. With black-and-white paths full of twists, turns, and dead ends, this activity keeps children thinking critically as they track the way forward.

The back-to-school theme is brought to life with playful visuals: cartoon-style school bags, a classic schoolhouse, and a clean layout that makes it easy for young learners to stay focused. It’s simple enough for kids to complete on their own, yet challenging enough to make them think.
