Corn Maze Trivia
 Ready
to make your question sheet?
Create questions for the
Adventure
Maze (Campfire Stories) or the
Impossible Maze.
Or, create different questions for both mazes! Please note that The Impossible
Maze is the only maze open at night.
Group leaders,
let your corn maze adventure take a whole new twist that is
customized for your group at Skelly's!
Try Maze Master Trivia. Whether you are bringing a
class on a fieldtrip, scout troops on a maze adventure, a church
group, a company picnic, or just a big group of family or
friends, you can use customized trivia questions that
you create to make your adventure extra special. As
your group navigates through the corn maze, they can answer multiple choice
questions about one of our premade topics, or you can create your own questions.
If they choose the right answer to a question, they will advance through the
maze in the right direction. If they answer incorrectly, they will head for a
dead end or in the wrong direction.
Maze Master Trivia is great for groups because you can
customize it specifically for your group. Scouts can create
questions about Scouting topics (or choose from our many premade
Scouting questions), church groups can review current topics or
just fun Bible trivia, and companies can create questions to
make office training more exciting. Just enter twelve multiple choice
questions on our website, and hit print to generate your unique
maze trivia card. Make enough copies for everyone in your group and bring them with you on your
visit. Get more ideas at

How it Works for Group
Members
- As your group members enter the maze, you will pass out
their question card complete with twelve questions and
answers.
- When group members come to each of the numbered checkpoints
in the corn maze, they will read the corresponding question
on their card. For example, the group members come to checkpoint
#1. They will then look at their card and read that question
#1 is, "Who was the first president of the United States?"
Then, they will look at their answers. "Left: George
Washington, Right: Abraham Lincoln." If they think it
is Abe, they will head to the right and end up in a dead end
because their answer was wrong. But if they answer George
Washington, they will head to the left and be headed towards
checkpoint #2.
- So, correct answers help them navigate the maze, and it
can also be a fun way to learn or review.
How it Works for the Leader
(You)
- Creating your question sheet is easy. First, it is
probably best to create your questions in a separate
document as a backup. Each question will need the question,
the correct answer, and up to two incorrect answers.
- Once you have your questions, you need to get them to
match up with the right way to go in the maze. Luckily, the
Maze Master takes care of all the hard work for you. Since
he knows the maze by heart, just tell him the questions,
right answers, and wrong answers, and he will generate your
question card for you. To enter your questions,
visit the maze master.
Select if you will be doing our Adventure Maze (family maze)
or The Impossible Maze (the harder maze and night maze). Just enter your questions in the
form and click "View Printable Sheet" at the bottom when
finished.
- If you will be using a premade set of questions from our
site, just select from one of these sets of questions
instead of entering your own.
Special Note for Teachers:
Most field trips only walk through half of the maze due to time
constrictions for the field trip. Some groups visit checkpoints
1-6, while others visit 7-12. Due to possible last minute
scheduling changes, we cannot guarantee which checkpoints your
group will visit. Some larger groups may even be split between
both. To give your group the same experience, just enter each
question twice: once for questions 1-6 and once for questions
7-12.
- Once you have finished entering questions, be sure to to
click "View Printable Sheet". Your question card will
automatically generate. Make sure you print your
card. Your card does not get sent to us, and we have
no way of printing it. You must print or
make copies of your card for each group member and
bring them with you on your trip.
Trivia FAQs
Do we have to use trivia with the maze?
No, but it makes your adventure more fun for your group, and it
can be relevant to things about your group.
What if I am bringing my family? Do I really have to
create my own trivia?
We do have a few sets of fun
trivia for the general public to use in the Impossible Maze. Our
family Adventure Maze already has some fun and friendly
scarecrows for you to find instead of using trivia. If you are
bringing a group, we encourage you to create your own questions
or print a card from our premade questions for your group
members because otherwise groups quickly deplete our supply of
trivia cards.
Where do we get our printed cards?
You
must create and print your own question cards before arriving at
our farm. We do not have access to cards you create.
If we get every answer right, does that mean we will
never get lost?
No, there are about 40-50 decision
points (intersections) in the maze where you could go the wrong
way. However, there are only 6 questions in each half of the
maze. These are located at the most major intersections. In the
Impossible Maze, some of our checkpoints are hidden on paths
that are not main throughways. However, each trivia will help
lead you to the next checkpoint so you can find them all.
What is the cost?
Maze Master Trivia is
free for any Skelly's Farm Market visitor!
What is the recommended age?
The concept
of asking someone a question could apply to any age, but
children in kindergarten on up to adults can all have fun with
trivia. For young children, it may be best to just give the card
to leaders and they can verbally ask the students the questions.
