Five shapes, five occasions
Each maze is carved inside its own silhouette rather than a square grid. A Christmas tree. A pumpkin for Halloween. An Easter egg, a heart for Valentine's Day, and a turkey for Thanksgiving.
Print all five as one PDF, or pick a single shape.
The pack, or one shape
Choose "All five" and you get a five-page pack in one download. That is the version worth printing once in September and filing.
Picking one shape gives a single page, which is what you actually want in the week before the occasion. The distinction matters more than it sounds — nobody wants to hand out a Christmas tree in October because it happened to be in the same file as the pumpkin.
Detail level
The scale setting, 2 to 5, controls how many maze cells each unit of the silhouette becomes.
At 2 the shape is unmistakable and the maze inside it is short. Good for a four-year-old, good for a party bag. At 5 the same tree holds several times as many cells, the solve runs long, and the outline turns fine.
Generate one shape at 2 and again at 5 before printing thirty. They look like different products.
Why a shaped maze beats a themed one
Plenty of seasonal printables are a square maze with a picture of a pumpkin in the corner. This is not that.
The corridors themselves make the shape, so the puzzle and the picture are the same object. That is a small difference on paper and a large one to a child, because the thing they are solving is the pumpkin rather than a maze that has been decorated.
Solutions are off by default
Deliberate, because these get printed in stacks for parties and classrooms, and an answer page stapled behind each maze does not survive contact with the children it was printed for.
Turn it on and the solutions print as a matching stack at the end, so you can pull the back half off and keep it.
Planning ahead
Print the whole pack in September and you have Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's Day and Easter covered, plus Thanksgiving if you mark it. That is four or five occasions where somebody would otherwise be searching for a printable at short notice.
Seeds reproduce an exact set, so a pack you liked can be printed again next year identically. Print at 100% on A4 or US Letter.
