Maybe one of those paper airplane building books.
Thank you, that sounds like a great idea!
Someone also makes one of those “page-a-day” calendars with instructions for a new plane every day, typically with designs printed on them so the planes look cool after being folded.
I helped a friend’s daughter make paper airplanes once. She was all excited about making all sorts of new airplanes but none of them were flying.
So over the course of a few weeks I had her repeat the same basic airplane again and again, until she mastered it. At first she hated the idea of going back and doing the same airplane again, but as her folds got better and her airplanes started to fly better, she got really into it.
The grin that spread over her face when she realized she could get better at things was amazing.
And she was six. I’m not sure if an airplane a day would be appropriate for a three year old.
This!
My kids have had a few of these over the years and they're great. At 3-4yrs, they'll needs some help with instructions and folding, but it's still a great gift.
