Composition Of Vital Family Survival Kits

By Tammie Caldwell


The best way to show love to your household is to protect them when the need arises. With disasters changing the lives of people and communities in a flash, vital family survival kits become valuable cushions. Having the foresight to prepare will save your loved ones the agony of hunger and thirst in the wilderness.

Research and expertise in human survival has revealed the shape and content of an ideal kit. This will cushion your household from severe conditions which gives you the peace of mind required to think of a long term settlement plan. You will be at peace knowing that the basic needs of your family are sorted for a few days, weeks months or even a year. This time is enough to adjust and explore other alternatives.

Disaster situations require you to leave the house, school, office or even a neighborhood within minutes. For families, it helps to have a designated assembly point depending on possible causes of emergency. When the safety of every member has been confirmed, ahead of you lies days, weeks and even months of uncertainty. With the kit, you can comfortably survive the these days as you find better options.

The nature of each kit depends on the size of household you have in mind when preparing and how long you want to cover them. A standard pack is designed to cover the needs of an individual for a year. Where children are involved, different components will be required. Elderly people will also require a different set of items. This calls for awareness of the needs of individual members of your household.

A situation where there are four adults in the household means that they will spend in three months what a single adult would have spent in a year. Each is entitled to two servings a day for this duration. The use of Mylar pouches ensures that the food is totally protected from damage. Each pouch has four servings which helps to prevent wastage.

Some of the foods included in the bucket are multi-grain cereals, noodle soup, baked potato casserole and a mixture of beans and rice. There also are vegetables, macaroni and tortilla soup. Apple cinnamon cereals are also include, among other food varieties. These foods are approved by non profit preparedness organizations as well as government agencies. They meet the highest standards and will guarantee the energy and good health you require over the emergency period.

Other items that are added to the box include an emergency candle, waterproof matches, rechargeable battery touch and water. There are tube tents with ropes, blankets and a whistle. Other items include function knife and palm work gloves. The inclusion of hygiene equipment like pocket tissue pack, toilet bars and fresheners enhances your comfort and health in difficult circumstances. You will enjoy a game of cards to relieve stress as you take cover.

The design of the bucket makes it easy to store in stacks without the need for shelves. The handle is easy to grab and ideal for an emergency situation. The food can last 25 years without going bad even in the absence of refrigeration. Its weight is manageable.
