- Book: Fly by Nathan Clement
- Learn about the process of flying in an airplane!
- Visit an Airport
- If you have an airport close by, go as close to the runway as you can and watch the planes.
- Track the airplanes you see – Big, Medium, Small airplanes; White, Red, Black airplanes; etc.
- Read more airplane books while you wait for them!
- Make paper airplanes!
- Usborne has a book “100 More Paper Planes to Fold and Fly”. Spend some time learning how to fold different types of airplanes, then fly them!
- Airplane Graphing
- Do this graphing activity using different colored airplanes (like THESE that we used).
- On a simple piece of graph paper, write an A next to each row (or column, however you are graphing) in the color of each different colored airplane.
- Pick a specific spot you are aiming at (a chair, pillow, person, etc) and help your preschooler throw each airplane at that object.
- The airplane that is the closest wins, put an A in their row.
