Materials for Your at Home Laser Maze

How to Design a Laser Maze
Creating a laser maze at home is pretty easy. All you need to do is create a zig-zag pattern with your streamers. Start at the furthest end of your hallway and work your way out so you don’t get stuck.
Secure the start of your maze with tape and then each time a streamer touches the wall tape it.
Tip: I found it was better to rip individual pieces of streamers across your hallway rather than keeping the roll in tack across the whole maze. This way if your kids break part of the obstacle course it won’t take the whole course down just the part their foot hit.

Obstacle Course Game
To go through the maze encourage your kids to climb through without touching the streamers. They may need to duck, step or slide on their tummy to get through the obstacle course.
Make it into a laser maze game by having the kids race through the course. Time the kids and see who can make it through the obstacle course the fastest.
The challenge is they can’t break the streams or they’re out.
Let them use their imagination and pretend to be a spy or an explorer discovering how to make it through the maze to find the treasure at the end of the hallway. You could even hide something at the end for the kids to find.
When they get bored with the laser maze change it up. With individual pieces of streamers, it’s easy for kids to change the course themselves.
Tip: This game would be great for indoor birthday parties or holiday parties too!
Laser Maze Party
Use this easy laser maze as part of your birthday party games. At Detective Parties or Escape Room Parties the kids can end the game by making it through the laser maze. They’ll touch pictures with clues as they go through the maze.
Make it competitive by seeing who can make it through the maze the fastest without breaking the steamers.
Another idea is at birthdays parties or holiday parties have the kids go through the laser maze to get to the desserts.
