Making a Labyrinth
Labyrinths come in many sizes and shapes, they can be made as a permanent feature or as a temporary group activity. They can be created by mowing the pattern into a lawn, creating a pattern from pebbles, gravel or turf – or you can make them out of leaves or bracken that will disappear naturally. Below are some reesources to help you make a labyrinth:
