How to Make a Marble Maze Game

12/26/2013

The paths in this maze game are made from flexible straws. The bends make perfect corners for the marble to roll around. Create your own maze in the same manner––and enjoy!



Edit Steps



  1. Draw your maze. Use a ruler to draw the straight lines. Transfer the tracing onto smooth mounting white board. Cut out the maze, and cut out a square at the cross.





    • If you like, trace the maze that's included here, or figure out one of your own.



  2. Cut flexible straws to cover the lines out of the maze. Use the bend in the straw for the corners. When you have cut a piece to the corner length, draw a trail of clear glue along the line, and press on the straw. When you have finished, let the glue dry.





  3. Paint on a star (or any other shape) to show where the starting point on your maze is. This is where you put your marble to begin.





  4. Tape a piece of netting from a fruit bag onto the back of the maze under the finishing hole. It will catch the marble.





  5. Have a game. It's now ready for play.
