Klutz Book of Paper Airplanes

The Klutz Book of Paper Airplanes is such a fun kit! The instructions are clear and easy to follow, even for kids, and the book includes a great variety of designs from simple to more advanced. The included paper is colorful, sturdy, and perfectly sized for folding—no cutting or measuring needed. My child loved testing out all the different airplanes, and it turned into a great activity for the whole family. This is a fantastic mix of learning and fun, and I’d definitely recommend it as a gift or rainy-day activity.

Kids love them. Gave one away as a birthday present and gave one to a son, both are still making plans weeks later.

Excellent book and great planes. Each one flies and the book itself is very well written.

Hunting through Amazon for suitable presents for my 10 yr old daughter and 8 yr old son, I encountered Klutz for the first time. I was struck by how positive the reviews were - in fact nobody seemed to have a bad word to write about their products. I was a little suspicious at first. Were Klutz employees writing these reviews driven the reward of extra large chocolate buns in the Klutz canteen or even large bonuses?! Amazon reviews can be a bit like Trip Advisor with some people feeling the power of the keyboard and awarding one star just to spoil a product's record! I decided to put some of their products to the test and bought 6 Klutz books for my children. The Klutz book of Paper Airplanes gives detailed instructions for 10 designs. Each design is graded 1-5 stars depending on how difficult it is to construct. You get 40 sheets of coloured paper at the back of the book to make the planes with. You could, when this runs out use other appropriately sized paper. The instructions are really clear and well written. Interspersed with these are information on the theory and mechanics of flying the planes and trouble shooting tips. Many of these planes can be flown inside or outside. However, Sheffield in winter does not offer many suitable venues. My children developed this game where they would take it in turns to bend over and challenge the other one to hit his or her bottom from the other side of the living room. We have also taken 2 to church and, when most of the congregation has left, launched them from the balcony. One narrowly missed a still lit candle and today one flew nearly to the front of the church. My wife is deeply embarrassed but the minister does say it is the best church in the world and we haven't got into trouble yet!! As a Dad, I have loved this book. It is great fun, beautifully laid out and all the designs work. My son likes it too. It is the sort of book you want to keep and hopefully my son will revisit in the coming years as he gets older.
