Make a Hamster Labyrinth

 If you (or a friend) have a mouse, gerbil, hamster, or a rat, you can make a pets labyrinth.
     Attach rectangles of cardboard to make walls inside a carton.  Figure out a secret passageway - and create plenty of dead ends!  Make a path the ends with a Greek hamster treat.  How about a grape?  Or, start you pet  on a simple labyrinth, and gradually, over several days, make it more difficult.  Does your pet still find the reward?

     Don't feel like training a pet?  Draw a complicated labyrinth on paper or with the drawing tool on a computer to trade with a friend.  Mark the places to start and to end.  Then, see if your friend can solve the maze.


Thanks,
Bethany
