Mail and Make kits are designed for youth patrons working at an 8- to 13-year-old skill level, but are also open to adult patrons with an intellectual disability.  Crafts are mailed out six times a year. Each craft will have large print instructions included in the mailing with a link to a how-to video.

Wolfie's March - April 2024 Mail and Make Kit

Wolfie’s Youth Mail and Make kits for March-April 2024 are on their way to participants.   To celebrate the arrival of Spring weather, we will be creating a rainbow heart sculpture.

Not everyone is a fan of the frequent weather changes that come with Spring, but learning about how and why those changes happen is interesting.  It is also an excellent time to create or review a family safety plan for what to do in cases of severe storms, as they are becoming more frequent to our region.  A recommended reading list on weather and climate is included with this project, and you can search BARD or the WolfPAC for more titles.

A how-to video for this Mail and Make project is available at the following link: How To Make a Rainbow Heart Sculpture.

As always, we would love to see pictures of your finished projects.  Photos should be of the project only, to protect the safety of our patrons.  Please email your Mail and Make photos to [email protected].

Wolfie’s Youth Mail and Make program is open to youth and adults with intellectual disabilities.  Participants must be registered patrons of Wolfner Library.  To become a library patron, go to the Apply for Services page for access to the eligibility requirements and application.

Signup for Wolfie’s Youth Mail and Make may be found at the following link: Wolfie's Mail and Make Registration Form.

We are expanding to include a separate set of projects for grownups!  Patrons interested in Wolfner’s Adult Mail and Make Program can find the link on our Programs and Events page.
