Duration
30 -40 mins
Objectives
of the activity
Fun, suitable for multiple age groups working together
Materials
required
Paper, scissors, paper aeroplane instructions (there are several
websites with instructions), rope, hoop, mat, plenty of adults
and space to fly the planes.
Activity
Get each person to fold at
least one plane, we found some of the younger children needed quite a lot of help to get a flyable plane.
Try to ensure that you have a variety of styles
within the group.
What can each type of
plane do? Try holding a rope across the room, can the planes fly
under & over it? Can the planes fly through a hoop? Can you
land
the planes on a mat or sheet of newspaper? Do any of the planes do
stunts or come back?
Variations
Look for other flying toys which you could make
Evaluation
Went well & the children enjoyed it. The variety of planes kept competition between the children minimal.
