The Kansas Aviation Museum has a weekly program for kids age 5 and under that includes fun activities and discounted admission. During school breaks, they also usually open up the program for kids up to age 12.
For now, the Little Aviators Program is going virtual. Follow them on Facebook for an aviation themed storytime at 10:30 a.m. each Friday. The aviation museum is also posting fun and educational STEAM activities on its page.
What’s also cool is that you can catch the virtual story times and activities even if you missed them when they were live.
On the Kansas Aviation Museum website they have links to lots of good educational resources. Of particular interest to me is a link to a paper airplane video, because I sort of love how just one tiny fold of the paper could equal success or failure in a paper airplane. But they have a lot of other fascinating topics linked there too. An awesome way to keep boredom at bay.
Normally, Little Aviators is held on Friday mornings from 10 a.m. to noon, admission is just $5 per child to play and learn in the Boeing Science, Math, and History Learning Center and the Lattner Hanger at the museum.
One adult per child receives FREE admission to attend with the kids!
The weekly program includes activities like:
- Play area with building materials
- Get a look at real aircraft cockpits
- Fun and informative aviation videos
- Explore the museum and ramp
- Hands-on learning
