When Benjamin Franklin was a young man at the printing press in the 1730s he surely folded a piece of paper and threw it across the room. What did he call his craft?

I'd say that to make a paper plane you had to know the shape of a plane. They probably didn't make paper planes, there's no mention of anything like that in kid's toys. Kites, however...

Yes. Paper airplanes were among the Wright's inspirations.

I have feeling that first, paper was to expensive to waste on childish pursuits, and second, Ben was to busy being productive to play games.

Dunno, but I'd bet "kite". Origami bird, probably not, because even tho there was trade with the East, it was mainly luxuries 'cuz of shipping costs.
