For kids who want to soar to new heights, the Academy of Model Aeronautics can keep kids looking up as they learn about model aircraft and drones.

The Academy of Model Aeronauticshas put together several quick projects using materials folks probably already have at home, including how to build model planes, balloon rockets, kites, and more.

AMA is also offering a free, virtual model aviation camp experience in July: Camp AMA 2020.
