SOUTHFIELD, MICH (WXYZ) — Parents are looking for even more ideas to keep their kids occupied this summer… and model aviation just may be the perfect answer.
The Academy of Model Aeronautics [modelaircraft.org] (AMA) has put together several quick projects using materials people probably already have at home, including how to build model planes, balloon rockets, kites and more.  These activities are fun for all ages, educational and most importantly social distance safe.
Check out AMA’s Education Director Kyle Jaracz's interview in the video player above.
