The kids wanted to make a wind vane, so why not make an airplane.
An airplane needs a pilot and who isn't a better pilot than Snoopy and his companion Woodstock.
Airplane is made is made in Fusion. Wings and propellers are made with airfoils in mind to easier catch the wind direction.
wings and propeller is created with help of Airfoil tool plugin for fusion 360 made by Chris Drake.
Please check his web page for download and instruction of how to create fantastic foils.

Snoopy is slightly adopted to fit the airplane.

Parts needed.
For the propeller hub and the center pole you need 1pcs 6200 bearing each (2 bearings in total)
for the propeller hub bearing I would recommend to remove the rubber sealing and lubricate the bearing slight (for antirust) with PTFE or similar grease/spray, reason is to make the propeller turn slightly easier with less resistance.
Print 3pcs of the propeller blade.
1pcs of the rest.
Please note the small notch on the body bearing cap, which indicated the cap direction.
*Update 2022-04
Hub where bearing is inserted have been extended .5mm to give more clearance between bearing and cover.
