The top has seven pumpkins to count and a mini maze; the bottom is a gratitude drawing space. Set out pencils and crayons and let children choose their pace.
Are answers included?
Yes. The count is seven pumpkins and the maze has a matching solution. Drawings have no fixed answer; invite the child to explain who or what they appreciate.
Can I change the placemat difficulty?
The difficulty changes the mini maze size. Pumpkin counting and the drawing prompt stay the same, so ages 4–8 can choose the level that suits them.
