Bridge mazes with paths that cross over each other
On an ordinary maze a wall is the end of the argument. Here a path can run underneath another one and come out the far side, which means a child has to look at what a corridor does rather than where it appears to stop.
The paths cross over each other.
A bridge maze generator, printable as a PDF. Pick a corridor width and generate. At every crossing one path runs over the top, drawn unbroken, and the other passes underneath with a hair of white either side to show which is which. That gap is the entire instruction — nobody has to be told what a bridge is once they have seen one. Wide sheets carry six crossings and narrow ones thirty, and there is still exactly one route from the arrow to the star Mintee lost off his cap.

Start
At the arrow on the left.
Read
Drawn straight through means on top. Broken either side means underneath.
Finish
You cannot turn on a crossing — you come out the far side of it.
Path width
How much room the pencil has. Narrower corridors fit more of the sheet on the page and more crossings into it — six at the widest, thirty at the narrowest.
