Fold your own paper airplane

On April 19, we were together with Jeugd Genk and Campus O3 in Kolderbos on the outdoor play day.

One of the activities was decorating and folding your own paper airplane. Would you like to try it again yourself? Below you will find all the instructions.

Services

Speel’Bieb Genk is part of the Okapi network of toy libraries. We offer a place for playing and borrowing toys.

Once our play and toy rooms are up and running, we will open satellite locations where you can pick up and drop off reserved toys. We’ll organize theme play activities in our play area and on pop-up locations. Keep an eye on our website and social media for more info.

Speel’Bieb Genk is supported by the city of Genk through Burgerbudget Genk.
