Jacob and Esau

These free Jacob and Esau mazes come in three levels, so every child in your class gets a maze they can finish. Help Jacob go from the ford Jabbok to meet his brother Esau!

  • Easy (ages 4–6): one path with no wrong turns.
  • Medium (grades K–2): two or three side paths that lead to dead ends.
  • Hard (grades 3–5): many wrong turns, with side paths branching off other side paths.

Each level downloads on its own, with or without an answer key, and every maze has the King James verse Ephesians 4:32.

Talk about it: Jacob was afraid, and he prayed, "Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother" (Genesis 32:11). Then "Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him: and they wept" (Genesis 33:4). "Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another" (Ephesians 4:32).

Use them after the Jacob and Esau Bible story page, with the crossword and word search.
