How To Make Paper Airplane

By Jason Taingahue
Do you know how to make a paper airplane? If you just answered no to this question then read on and I will explain to you how you can make a paper airplane.

The first thing that we need to do when learning how to make a paper airplane is to get a piece of paper. A piece of A4 or standard size paper is more than appropriate when you are learning how to make a paper airplane.

Now lay the paper on the table or desk flat and fold it in half width ways and then unfold it. You should have a line down the middle of the piece of paper and this will be what we call our center line or a line that will give us an even building place for our paper airplane.

The next step to learning how to build a paper airplane is to fold one corner into the mid line of the plane so that you make a triangular shape that is going to be the head of the air plane, do the same with the closest corner to the one that you have just folded. At this stage of learning how to make a paper airplane, your plane should have a triangular shape head on it.

Now that we have a head for the plane that we are learning how to build, we can now make some wings for our paper air plane and to do this we will fold the plane in half again as we did in the beginning and then we will fold the outside of one side of the plane out wards and down and then do the same to the other side.

Now we have made some wings for the plane that we are learning how to build, all we have to do is fly it and if your wings on the plane are down a bit, then just unfold them out a bit. You can also design the airplane to so that it has some windows and also some patterns on it too.

There are plenty of other ways that you can learn how to make a paper airplane, but this is the most common that kids seem to use. Just experiment around with learning how to make a paper airplane and see what sort of designs you can come up with or read some books that may give you ideas on how to make a paper air plane. Bottom line is to use your imagination.

And the most important thing that you have to remember when you are learning how to build a paper airplane is to have that center line to work from when you fold it into the middle. This is how you make an even airplane and a center point can give you exact folding measurements as well.

Well I hope that you have fun with learning how to make a paper airplane this way and be sure to tell the kids how to make a paper airplane using this method as well, it can entertain them for hours and it keeps them out of your hair for a little while too.

So what are you waiting for, get to it and start to make your paper airplane, get to it and make it now.
