Where can I use the Coolkit?

Most of the activities here are simple, easy, and fun to do with family, friends, and neighbours! Consider introducing the Coolkit at a block party, when spending time with neighbours or friends, or on Facebook. Don’t forget to bring a copy of the Coolkit along with some pens, markers, and other required materials.

If it is hard to meet in person, don’t give up! Consider online options such as creating and using a  Facebook group or meeting regularly on Skype. You can also follow us on Facebook and Instagram to keep an eye on the upcoming events and share your ideas under the posts.
