Hey there! Today, we’re going to talk about something super important but also fun to do: preparing an emergency kit. An emergency kit is a special package we keep just in case something unusual happens, like a big storm or a power outage. It’s like having a plan for when you spill orange juice on the floor—you know what to do to fix it!
An emergency is when something unexpected happens that needs quick attention. It might sound a bit scary, but it doesn’t have to be! Just like cleaning up a juice spill, being prepared makes it easier to handle emergencies.
We might never face big emergencies like hurricanes or floods, but it’s always good to be ready. Having an emergency kit is like keeping band-aids around—you might not need them today, but they’re there just in case.
Let’s see what we should put in our emergency kit:
Now that we’ve packed our emergency kit, we feel ready for anything! Even if we never need to use it, it’s nice to know we’re prepared. And remember, you don’t need an emergency to enjoy reading a good book or playing cards together!

Build Your Own Mini Emergency Kit: Gather some small items from around your house to create your own mini emergency kit. You can use a small box or a bag. Think about what you might need if you were stuck in your room for a few hours. Maybe a flashlight, a snack, or a favorite toy. Share your kit with a friend or family member and explain why you chose each item.
Emergency Kit Scavenger Hunt: With the help of an adult, go on a scavenger hunt around your house to find items that could go in a real emergency kit. Look for things like band-aids, water bottles, or canned food. Make a list of what you find and talk about why each item is important. Can you think of anything else that might be useful?
Imagine and Draw: Imagine a situation where you might need to use your emergency kit, like a pretend power outage or a camping trip in your living room. Draw a picture of what you think it would look like and how you would use the items in your kit. Share your drawing with someone and tell them your story.
