Kids Foam Glider Airplane Launcher

Velleora Home Decor's Kids Foam Glider Airplane Launcher gives a child the one thing a hand-thrown plane never does: a launch that actually flies. The catapult tensions and releases in a single motion, sending the glider out flat and fast enough to catch the air and settle into a long, slow arc across the garden.

The gliders are cut from lightweight foam with a moulded nose, so they take repeated landings on grass and paving without folding, and a bent wing can be straightened by hand. The launcher itself is sized for small hands, with a simple pull-and-release action that a child can work without help. Spare gliders are included, since the usual limit on a session is a plane on a roof rather than a broken one.

Fly it in open ground away from roads, water and windows. Adults should supervise: children must never aim the launcher at a person or an animal, and everyone should stay behind the launcher when it is being fired. Check the elastic for wear before each session and replace it if it has gone brittle.
