Scripture: D&C 38:30 If ye are prepared, ye shall not fear.
Activity: Pretend that you only have 10 minutes to leave your house before a fire or flood is going to occur. Have everyone in your household gather items they might need to survive for the next 3 days. Set a kitchen timer for 10 minutes and then get back together. Review the items that have been gathered. What other items would you need to survive? Did you remember food, water, first aid kit, clothing, light, medication, important documents, medications, scriptures, coloring books, diapers, etc? Compare what you gathered to the list at http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net/getting-started/disasters-kit/
Using the list, have a scavenger hunt to find the remaining items you need for your kits. Make a list of the items that you don't have around the house. Make it a goal to purchase those items this week to complete your kits.
If you already have kits put together, use this as a chance to check and update your kits. Each family member can check to make sure that food and medications have not expired and that clothing and diapers are the right sizes.
Use the information at http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net/getting-started/ to help you pull together your family plan and disaster kits.
