Build an Airport

Did you know a 2-litre soda bottle makes a great air traffic control tower? A covered cereal box is a great airport building. Parking paper airplanes was a problem.  The boys came up with raised blocks to set them on as they arrive and depart.  Making and flying paper planes is so much fun, and adding an airport adds to the fun!

  1. My boys are also big fans of paper airplanes (have you tried the canon paper folding site? they have a bunch of really great planes)

  2. Audrey's boys will love this. Matthew can throw a paper airplane like nobody's business.

  3. I like how you used colored paper to make the airplanes. Usually we just use plane white paper (I don't know why). Next time I'll have to get creative and dig into the craft supplies or the recycling bin.

  5. Great idea - my boys haven't really gotten into paper planes yet (except the papers they bring home from church are always folded into planes...) We should do that when we are bored one day.
