Make an emergency kit.

Fact: unexpected emergencies are stressful. Anything you can do to alleviate some of that stress is a worthy investment, and nothing is more soothing than knowing you have the supplies you need to weather the storm. That’s why building an emergency kit should be at the top of your to-do list.

To begin, choose a bag that’s big enough to carry a variety of objects, but small enough to transport without too much trouble. Double-strapped bookbags with multiple pockets are always a solid option. Next, fill it with the following essentials:

•Refillable water bottle
• Water purification tablets
• Protein bars
• Flashlight
• First aid kit
• Prescription drugs
• Battery-powered or hand-crank radio
• Whistle
• Face masks
• Toilet paper
• Garbage bags
• Multi-tool
• Local maps
• Extra batteries and backup charger

The final step to building your emergency kit is knowing where to store it. Pick a location in your house that’s easy to find and reach even during a power outage. Beneath a bed or inside a linen closet are great options for keeping your kit out of sight, but accessible.
