Editorial Review
Want to get a bird's-eye view of your house? All you need are the Aerial Camera from Smithsonian Adventures and a good-sized kite or helium balloon. Just assemble the pieces, insert a disposable camera (one is included), and up you go. Experiment with different camera angles and different elevations. Then bring the camera back down, develop the film, and see a new perspective.
--Rob Lightner
A nifty craft activity for older kids (10 and up) and adults to enjoy together, the aerial camera adds a new dimension to the age- old hobby of flying single-line kites. Send the unit aloft, trigger the shutter, then look forward to seeing your bird's eye views once the film is developed. A 1999 Parents' Choice® Silver Honor Winner. (Parents' Choice®)
