Building A Family Survival Kit

By Freida Michael


As the head of your family, you would have to be ready for anything. Keep in mind that more than one person is counting on you. If you would not prepare for the worse and have a kit that all of you would be able to use, then you are the only one to blame at the end of the day and when a calamity comes.

For starters, water has to be on top of your priority list. A family survival kit would never be complete without this thing. Remember that your body is mostly comprised of water. You can be without food but then, you are not allowed to dehydrate yourself since that would lead you to die.

Your canned products will have to be far from your expiration date. Be reminded that a typhoon can strike at any time of the day. So, be able to shop way ahead of time and that is how you will be able to succeed with flying colors in this stage. Thus, simply continue what you are doing and a smooth flow will take place at this point.

A radio that can run with a powerful battery is a necessity. Remember that you would have to know what is going on in the outside world. If you have known all along that someone would save you, then you would have to be aware on when they would be coming. That is for you to be able to estimate your food.

Have more than one flashlight. Take note that you will be able to get things done in a faster way when you do not have to feel the corners around you. Besides, one set of batteries will not cost you that much. You can even go for a cheaper brand of flashlight if you are really on a tight budget and that is it.

Gather the essentials of a first aid box. You do not need to have a lot of products but then, the most basic ones will do. So, list down everything and start from there. Do not stop until you already have a complete package that will be necessary for your unusual stay at home at this time of the year.

Learn how to whistle to the best of your abilities. Yes, you have never done this before but it is very essential to your survival. If you would not be able to call out for help, then the rescuers would not come to your home thinking that you are not there. So, be able to practice this out when you still have the time.

Several toiletries would have to be stuffed. The call of nature is something that you can never control. For you not to create a mess with your clothes, make use of the tissues that you managed to get. That is how you would still be able to maintain proper sanitation.

Overall, just try not to forget about anything important. You have the lives of your family in your hands. If you have to double check the stuff that you got, then so be it.
