  • Take a piece of paper and fold it in half.
  • Unfold back to a full page and fold either end to a point by bringing each corner to the fold line. Should now look like a house if you stand it on the bottom edge.
  • Fold the point down towards the bottom. Start the fold at the "roofline" of your house shape, folding the 2 triangle shapes that make up the "roof" inward.
  • Fold the peak, approx. 1/2 inch, of your (former) roof back towards the sky and then back down.
  • Fold each corner of the "roofline" to the center of your "peak" fold and flip the peak fold up again. The peak fold should now be covering each corner of the "roofline".
  • Fold your plane again along its original (step 1) fold so the other folds are on the outside.
  • Fold each side down by bringing the "wing" edge to the bottom of the plane.
  • Now lift the wings back up carefully and visually create a sleek jet plane shape. The wings should be "up" slightly so the air can roll off the bottom of the plane sides and rear.
  • Gentle toss and it's off.

  • Instructions for making paper airplanes are almost impossible to follow, unless illustrated in pictures or drawings. There are many, many books about making paper airplanes, and tons of different kinds of planes you can make. I recommend the books "The World Record Paper Airplane Book" and "Super Simple Paper Airplanes".
