Separate decoration from the route
Observe star points, ribbons and repeated ornament shapes, while locating the start and finish separately. Theme details can surround the route; follow the passages rather than using part of the illustration as a shortcut.
After the activity
Design an ornament from two geometric shapes and explain how you would repeat its pattern in a garland. Connect Christmas vocabulary with decorations and scenes that participants can interpret in their own way.
Backtrack to the last decision
If you reach a dead end, return to the last junction and try another branch. A pencil lets you correct your route without obscuring the passages. When finished, follow your line from start to finish to check that it does not jump over a wall.
