Saint-Exupéry's plane, a retro biplane, understated and elegant, will immerse your child in the world of early mail flights. Like the Little Prince with his rose, they will discover that it is the time spent building their plane that makes it so special…
It's an ideal opportunity to introduce them to woodworking.
Like a true budding craftsman, you will teach them how to make their own tools, acquire simple and reusable skills, develop their fine motor skills, and cultivate their appreciation for quality craftsmanship.
All supplies are included, and illustrated instructions explain how to build it and, more importantly, how to guide others through the process.
