Printable games for kids
For kids, there is just one game for now, but in four sizes: the maze. The small square with wide corridors suits 4-year-olds, the medium one suits 7-year-olds, and the large formats keep teenagers and adults busy. Every maze has a single path, and the PDF downloads in a few seconds, with no account. Here is what you need to pick the right size and answer parents' questions.

Which size to choose?
The ages for the small and medium sizes and the times for the large and giant sizes are those on the game page; the rest is a guide. The maze is the only game in this section, hence a single row.
| Game | From age | Time per maze | Levels or sizes | Per page | Solutions |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mazes | 4 for small, 7 for medium | 10 to 20 min for large, 30 min and more for giant | 10 × 10, 15 × 15, 25 × 25 or 40 × 40, 3 levels | 1 maze | at the end, to print separately |
Frequently asked questions
From what age can a child do a maze?
From age 4 with the “Small” size (10 × 10), whose corridors are wide: the child follows the path with a finger first, then with a pencil. The medium size (15 × 15) suits age 7 and up, the large (25 × 25) teenagers and adults, and the giant (40 × 40) the keenest.
Which maze size should I choose?
Start from the age: small at 4, medium at 7. The level matters too: on easy the path is direct and the dead ends are short, on hard it winds and multiplies false trails. A large easy maze is therefore more approachable than a medium hard one.
What should I do when the child gets stuck?
Let them backtrack: you try a path, get it wrong, start again, and a pencil with an eraser helps. You can also suggest starting from the exit. If they are really stuck, the solutions are on the last pages of the PDF: look on their behalf, or show them only the start of the path.
How do I print the mazes?
Choose “Actual size” or “100%” in the print dialog, not “Fit to page”, to keep comfortable corridors. Black and white is enough. You can ask for up to 20 mazes per PDF, in A4 or Letter, each on its own page with its number, level and size.
Are the solutions in the PDF?
Yes, grouped at the end, and you can untick the box for a PDF without solutions. The solutions page reminds you to print it separately: the child does not see it by mistake, and the adult can check a passage.
