Mini Survival kit.

Chances are an emergency will happen
while you are at work / school etc, rather
then when you are at home with
everything on hand.

A mini survival kit kept at work, in the
bottom of your school bag, in the car or
even in your handbag will help you
through. Your kit could consist of: a
mylar / space blanket, small first aid kit,
containing tweezers, sterile bandage,
band aids, antiseptic cream, tissues,
wipes. A small bottle of water and
something with a long shelf life to eat,
such as good quality muesli bars, fruit
leather, chewing gum, trail mix etc.
Small note pad and pencil/ pen. Torch/
batteries or wind up / static torch.

There is no such thing as over prepared,
only under prepared.
With the world going mad and the
increase of violence, it is a matter of time
before we see such tragedy’s as shootings
at school causing lock downs and the
children held in for hours. Prepare them
by providing a mini survival kit in their
school bags. Include a game and other
comfort foods such as chocolate. Add a
photo of the family to give them
something to focus on. Perhaps discuss
during FHE some instructions they could
have written down in their kits, cue cards
to keep them calm, such as: stay where
you are, remain calm, help will come etc.
Even a note from you expressing your
confidence in them to act appropriately
and your love for them.
