Labyrinth Pads
Today, I spotted a paperweight that has a labyrinth molded into the top. It comes with a stylus, so the user can trace the surface of the labyrinth. This is only a single, static labyrinth. You can make your own to trace by Googling "labyrinth", and printing up some of your own to trace with a pencil or your finger. You could pad a bunch of the images with padding compound, and use them and/or give them as gifts. Here is a link to making a pad: http://practicallyfunctional.com/make-your-own-pad-of-paper/ and another from Lifehacker: http://lifehacker.com/5975531/make-custom-notepads-with-padding-compound
If you have some disposal income, you could have some rubber stamps made from the images your find.
