FAQ
How do I use the Secret Door Mazes?
⌄
A grown-up reads the directions and riddles aloud. Let children try first, then give the hint to look for the star if they get stuck.
What are the Secret Door Mazes?
⌄
Three mazes after the cover, titled Bunny to the Carrots, Rocket to the Moon and Parrot to the Treasure. Each path looks blocked, but a small star marks a secret door, and the finish box has a riddle with its answer. Answer keys show each path in red.
Can I use the Secret Door Mazes at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for Kindergarten to 2nd Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many Kindergarten to 2nd Grade April Fools' Day resources are there?
⌄
2 printable resources, all free to preview. There are 8 April Fools' Day resources in all, from Kindergarten to 5th Grade, gathered on our April Fools' Day activities page. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are April Fools' Day resources for?
⌄
These are written for Kindergarten to 2nd Grade students, roughly ages 5-8. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these April Fools' Day resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Kindergarten to 2nd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
