If your kid is obsessed with airplanes and airports, books and puzzles are a great way to feed that interest. Here are a few of our favorites that Jax keeps coming back to.
The Ultimate Book of Airplanes and Airports
This interactive pop-up book by Sophie Bordet-Petillon is packed with flaps, pull tabs, and fold-out pages that bring airports and airplanes to life. Kids can explore how an airport works, see inside a cockpit, watch luggage get loaded, and learn how planes fly — all through hands-on illustrations. It's the kind of book that keeps kids engaged for a long time because there's always something new to discover on each page.
Ravensburger Airport Central Puzzle (150 Pieces)
This 150-piece XXL jigsaw puzzle features a busy airport scene that aviation-loving kids will enjoy piecing together. It's detailed enough to be engaging but not so difficult that younger kids get frustrated. Ravensburger puzzles are well-made with thick, sturdy pieces that fit together cleanly. A great quiet-time activity for airplane fans.
Ravensburger Construction at the Airport Puzzle
Another excellent Ravensburger puzzle, this one shows an airport under construction with cranes, vehicles, and planes. If your kid loves both building things and airplanes, this puzzle hits both interests. The scene is full of detail — there's always something new to spot, which makes it fun to come back to even after completing it.
