Bigger is not the same as harder
The instinct is to raise the grid size when a maze proves too easy, but size mostly changes how long a maze takes, not how much thought it needs. Difficulty comes from branching, how many plausible wrong turns leave the true path, and how far each one runs before it dead-ends. A dense 12×12 can be much more stubborn than a sparse 25×25.
If a child is finishing everything instantly, try holding the size and raising the complexity first. If they are giving up, shorten the solution path rather than shrinking the grid.
Mazes that are secretly something else
Several of these use the maze as a wrapper for a different task. The maths and multiples mazes only open a route when a calculation is answered correctly, so the maze marks the work for you. The alphabet-order maze does the same for letter sequence, and the colour-by-path and word mazes turn the completed route into a picture or a word. These tend to hold attention much longer than a plain grid.
Shapes, themes and structure
The shaped mazes, hearts, stars, animals, dinosaurs, rockets, and the name-shaped maze built from any word you type, are the same puzzle with a reason to finish it. For older solvers, the structural variants change the solving strategy rather than the picture: braid mazes remove dead ends so wall-following stops working, one-way mazes add direction, and the isometric maze runs across multiple levels.
