Fantastic Card Gliders

Another new product available at my AJ Box website is Pop-Glider.
This is a class set of 35 glider kits in a tough card box. This is not available at present to buy direct, but I am seeking partnerships with various educational suppliers to stock it. Minimum order is a 4 cases, each containing 20 class sets. I have free samples I can send out so contact me if you are interested.

The gliders are extremely tough and very easy to assemble, but have all the adjustable bits you find on a plane, and can be further enhanced using just paper and glue to fly even better.

They are made in a special heavy duty corrugated card which has been die-cut (No scissors, parts just pop-out, and are glued with paper glue and slot together) with a safety edge on critical parts. The glider is white and can be coloured with normal pens / pencils and paints. The gliders are hand or rubber band launched and fly extremely well as standard, before you even start making them better with little tweaks and adjustments.


Full instructions, films, suggested lesson activities and a brilliant list of other websites with companion activities is on the AJ Box website.

New Products and Website lauched

Bit if a long time since the last Blog... Been rather busy! Will be blogging more often now!

Have now set up a new companion website and company called AJ Box ltd. This website lists all the products I can now sell which I have developed.

The first three products are :
Think-Scuttle A kit with tools and all parts to run a project building clockwork creatures
Think-Light A kit with tools and all parts to investigate different light sources and design new uses for them
Think-SumoBox A kit with all tools and parts to run a project building and battling motorised 'bots'

All three projects are available as 6 user packs, and soon in 36 user packs. they have enough parts, tools and materials for the users to make a number of projects each, and can easily be shared between young people. For example, a team of 3 producing a 'SumoBox' bot so a 6 user kit would work with up to 18 people to deliver 5-6 hours of focussed activity. All kits come with a comprehensive set of resources on CD-ROM including training films, presentations, blank worksheets and photos and video of exemplars.

All three of these are available NOW from the University if the First Age
They are also taking bookings for a series of training events which I am running, giving direct instruction in how to run the above courses, complete with an in-depth course tutors manual which I have written.
