Left, Right, Left, Left...Dang it!

Mazes!  Solving mazes!  Doing mazes!  Making mazes! 
​Getting our create on!  GO!!!!

Not sure about you guys, but I'm a sucker for a good maze, so today we combined our crafty kids with our engineering kids with my
​love for mazes, and made...! 
Marble Mazes!

Using our well-honed scissor skills, our infinite creativity, and the power of bendy straws, we set about to make a marble maze that would challenge the
​most formidable people ever. 
​Our peers.

We had a lot of fun this time as we first sketched out the route of our mazes, then used our scissors and straws to make the layout!  I set forth a challenge to try and make a two layer maze!  I also suggested trying to make them harder by adding traps or holes, which many of them were very intrigued by!

Great project to try at home!  It was a-MAZE-ing! Ha!  Ha! 
​I recommend trying it with wider straws to make the walls taller!  But we stacked our straws when necessary,
which worked well, too!  

If your a maze fan like me, here's one of my favorites!
And yes.
​I did solve it. :D
