Santa Monica Airport Presents: The Junior Aviator Logbook

If your kids love airplanes, then we have some exciting news at the Santa Monica Airport.
Jr. Aviator Logbook
This week we launched a new book for kids called the “Jr. Aviator Logbook” on Amazon.

This book is designed for kids 1-10 years old, to log their visits to the Santa Monica Airport and learn how planes fly.

It took a team of 5+ volunteers several months to create the book and I think it is sure to be a big hit with your family.

Watch the video on our website here.

This book will inspire your kids to:

  • Have fun learning science, through aviation.
  • Visit Santa Monica Airport & record your visits.
  • Learn the parts of an airplane and all about the airport.
  • Read stories and interviews from real pilots and people who work at the airport.
  • Learn the fascinating hidden history of this 100-year-old landmark airport.

Two options to buy the book:
1) Buy it on Amazon for $10 (and get it delivered to your home in the next 2-3 days).
2) Visit our friends at Santa Monica Flyers this week to pick up an Jr. Aviator Kit for your kid.

The Jr. Aviator Kit gets you a logbook, a photo and stickers (watch this video to learn more)
