My kids and I recently completed an ant unit to learn all about these amazing insects. As part of our ant unit, I created a number of ant and insect printables. Today I’m sharing the next printable in that collection – my ant mazes. These ant mazes go well with any lessons about ants or insects in general. And they are a fun and effective way of providing kids with some fine motor practice related to pencil grip and control.

Note: For more resources, printables and activities related to ants and other insects, please see my insects unit study page.

As part of our ant unit, I printed out the advanced versions of my ant mazes and slipped them into my kids’ Crayola Dry Erase Activity Centers. Their goal was to connect the ant to the food without crossing over any lines.

This proved a bit challenging for my kids, so it was a good thing the Crayola Dry Erase Activity Centers make it so easy to erase mistakes. 🙂
