Growing a Love of Aviation: Aviation Alphabet 102
This class is designed for children between 5-7 years old. Each week, students will explore a letter of the alphabet and a corresponding aviation concept using engaging, hands-on learning. Students that have attended the Pre-K class, Alphabet 101, will be excited to explore familiar concepts on a deeper level, while students new to the program will delight in learning how our world works through the lens of aviation.
Classes are held on Monday mornings from 11:00 am-12:00 pm. Each week has a unique theme; enrollment is limited to 15 students and is secured using our online registration system. The class fee is $15 per student, with a $5 discount given to Florida Air Museum members. Parents can also purchase the full 26 weeks of the course at a deeply discounted bundle price of $250. Admission to the Florida Air Museum and Destination: Aviation Playground are included in the class fee.*
