Get ready to pop, fold and fly sturdy paper airplanes!
Origami author Andrew Dewar rediscovered his childhood love of paper airplanes in Japan working with Yasuaki Ninomiya (creator of the famous White Wings planes). His designs are incredibly easy to assemble and his book not only explains how to make paper planes, but how to tune them for better performance. For the daring paper airplane maker, he also gives tips on designing your own airplane models.
The helpful instruction book inside the kit provides clear, step-by-step instructions for each plane. All the planes are printed in full color on high-quality cardstock and precut, so you just push out the pieces, fold them and staple them. The rubber band catapult launcher that is included makes the planes soar and swoop to great heights—which draws a crowd and keeps both kids and adults entertained for hours.

Andrew Dewar was born in Toronto, Ontario, and graduated from Ryerson Polytechnic Institute (B.A. Journalism) and University of Toronto (M.A. Japanese Studies, Library and Information Science) before moving to Japan in 1988. After completing his doctoral studies in library science at Keio University, he joined the faculty of a junior college in Japan. Soon after arriving in Japan he rediscovered his childhood love of designing and flying paper airplanes. His passion for paper airplanes led him to become president of the Fukushima Paper Airplane Club. Dewar has published over 30 paper crafting books and kits. He also teaches paper airplane workshops and does seminars at schools, libraries, community centers and museums. He lived and taught library science in Fukushima, Japan, until the giant earthquake and nuclear accident in March 2011, when the city became unsafe. After a brief stay in Canada, he's returned with his family to Gifu, Japan.

"One Minute Paper Airplanes Kit is a kit with pop out aeroplanes that you fold according to instructions and then staple together. The instructions also tell you how to tune the planes for better performance and offers tips on how to design your own paper aeroplane models. The 12 pop outs are printed in full colour on high-quality card and you don't have to cut anything - you just push them out, fold and staple. There's also a rubber band catapult launcher in the kit to help the planes fly far, high and fast! The instructions are quite easy to follow but our stapler is too large to fit in to staple the planes together so ours weren't as sturdy as they should have been. Still lots of fun though and my 3-year-old loved the planes I made her." -A Mum Reviews blog This kit contains 12 full colour pop-out paper pieces, a catapult launcher and instruction booklet.
