We were in stitches from start to finish!

Now that’s a brilliant way to get the most out of a drawing!
A maze can be a fun puzzle to occupy your time. Or it can also be a huge network of hedges and pathways, where getting lost can be a serious problem!
Mazes can be square, round, 2D, 3D, trapped, creature infested, or just plain impossible!
Your Flipnotes could involve mazes in any way you can think of.
Here’s some popular movies in which mazes feature:
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire / The Maze Runner / Labyrinth / Inception.
And here’s some classic computer games where mazes are a big part of the challenge:
Pac-Man / The Amazing Maze Game / Berzerk / Theseus & The Minataur / Corridors of Genon / 3D Monster Maze.
We hope they inspire you for a Flipnote creation.
We really love the way you're all so creative with these topics and look forward to seeing the Flipnotes you create for them.
Make sure to post your entries to the Weekly Topic channel Weekly Topic - Mazes and the deadline for your entries is February the 9th (12pm EST / 4pm GMT).
We would also encourage you to add a description to your Flipnotes, to highlight any details you’d like us to feature in our winner reviews.
Tip: The frame you save your Flipnote on will become the thumbnail, so choose your favorite or add a title page!
Keep on Flipnoting and the best of luck with your entries.
