Vertical Bunny Maze

A paper towel roll painted with a maze, with a bunny ring that slides along the path collecting carrots. A surprisingly engineered toy.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Draw a maze path with carrots at the dead ends along a paper towel roll.

  2. 2

    Cut a clear plastic strip long enough to wrap the roll, draw a bunny on the middle, and tape the ends together to form a ring.

  3. 3

    Slide the bunny ring up and down the roll, navigating the maze and collecting carrots until the bunny reaches the end.

Tips & extensions

Make the ring slightly bigger than the roll so it slides easily. Swap carrots for monsters if the kid prefers an escape theme.
