You have heard it all your life–whether you were a boy scout or not! Be prepared!! But how many people these days actually teach their kids what that means? Sad to say, with today’s unrest, it is more important than ever! So what DOES it mean? First, it means have a first aid kit!
Simply put, a pack of basic emergency supplies to keep you or a loved one alive until help can reach you or be reached. Bandages, antiseptic, medical tape. But what if things have gotten really crazy and there is no way to get immediate help? There are a few more things you need in that kit!
Not sure where to start? You can create your own, and at some point, I recommend it. However, if you want something you can grab and go, or to make a gift of it for the adventurer in your tribe, then you can order complete first aid kits right on this site!
They have quite a few options to choose from…the most basic keep in your glove box kits, to more elaborate choices for serious preppers. And the in between!!
I had the benefit of growing up with a pretty self-reliant set of parents, especially my mom, so, my kit has definite upgrades…emergency rations, bottled water, those lightweight space blankets, fishing hooks, and all kinds of goodies! Being prepared for the zombie apocalypse is good, being prepared for reality is better, lol!
Once you get the first aid kit handled, great job! But don’t stop there. First aid, again, is critical. But I definitely recommend educating yourself on at least a few basic survival techniques. Check out this book for some ideas that could help you keep going for months if you needed to! And not to be an alarmist, but this page might be helpful as well…
