Unleash Your Inner Pilot: Creating Amazing Paper Planes
Are you ready to embark on a paper-folding adventure and take to the skies? Wendy and Theo have some fantastic paper plane ideas that will ignite your creativity and keep you entertained for hours. So, let’s grab some plain A4 white paper and a few art supplies and get started.
Materials you Will Need
- A sheet of A4 white paper
- Felt tip pens
- Paint sticks or paint
How to Make a Dart Plane
- Begin with your A4 sheet of paper.
- Fold the paper vertically in half, and then unfold it. You’ll see a crease running down the centre of the paper.
- Fold down the top left corner to meet the centre line, and repeat the same fold for the top right corner.
- Now, fold the paper in half, ensuring the flaps are on the outside.
- Fold both flaps down towards the bottom.
- Finally, fold down both wings, and your dart plane is ready to take flight.
How to Make a Jet Plane
- Start with your A4 paper.
- Fold it horizontally in half, and then unfold it, creating a central crease.
- Fold down the top left corner, aligning it with the centre line, and repeat this for the top right corner.
- Now, fold the bottom left corner up to the centre line, and repeat this for the bottom right corner.
- Fold the bottom of the paper upward to form a triangle.
- Fold the bottom left corner upward, mirroring this fold for the right corner, creating a square.
- Flip the paper over so that the flaps are on the right side. Fold both the top and bottom triangles towards the centre, and then fold the paper in half.
- Fold the corners upwards to create wings.
- Unfold your model and push up the back triangle to shape the tail. Your jet plane is ready for takeoff.
- Once you’ve crafted your paper plane, it’s time to add your personal touch. You can use felt tip pens or paint sticks to decorate your plane with any design you like. Transform it into a flying work of art!
