Paper Airplane Flyoff

Your group is invited to take part in an exciting paper airplane flyoff challenge designed to inspire creativity and friendly competition. The event can be hosted at the museum or at your own location, with museum staff providing all materials and handling setup. Participants will design and fold their own airplane using a single sheet of paper, aiming to create the farthest flying design. Each plane must follow official guidelines, and every participant is given one throw to achieve the greatest distance. Judges measure from the starting line to the first point of ground contact, and all rulings are final.

This engaging activity encourages teamwork, problem solving, and hands on learning in a lively environment. Clear rules ensure fairness while allowing students to experiment with aerodynamics and folding techniques. A limited number of participants can compete during each session, making advance coordination important. When hosted at your location, a large indoor space and volunteer judges from your organization are required. Whether at the museum or your venue, this experience delivers energetic fun and memorable learning for all participants.
