CHALLENGES MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD

Remember those mazes that would come on a paper placemat when you went for pizza as a child? Try designing your own, but make it as complicated and as nearly impossible to crack as you can. Invent as many spirals, wrong turns, and dead ends as you can fit on the page, and then test the cleverest person you know to complete the challenge.

To create your own maze, you will need a sheet of paper and a black pen. Remember that the bigger the sheet of paper that you work on, the more complex the maze you can create. Start from the final destination point of the maze, which can be in the center of the paper, or anywhere on the sheet that you wish, and draw a celebratory symbol within a box to signify the completion of a difficult journey. Work your way outward from the end point with your pen. Create as many dead ends and wrong turns as you can fit on the page and make the players double-back on themselves, go round in circles, and get lost.

The pathway you are designing doesn’t necessarily have to go in straight lines with right angles and sharp corners. Use spirals, coils, twists, and turns to confuse and infuriate anyone trying to crack the maze. Think of unusual methods to trick the eye and the mind into taking a wrong path, and encourage a participant to continue to travel the wrong way toward an abrupt stop.

Make copies of the maze and see which of your friends and family can complete it.
