A Lot Can Fit Into One Small Bag

How often do you think about a first aid kit? Probably not that much, but it is something we all need and think about it a lot when we really need it.

Protect Life has a small, yet amazingly filled First Aid Kit that would be perfect for pretty much any situation. What I really like about this kit is how small it is. The bag is only 7½" x 5" x 2" and weighs a mere 15.2 ounces. It's small, but holds a lot!

So what is in this small emergency first aid kit:
Antiseptic cleansing wipes (6 pcs)
Alcohol prep pad (10 pcs)
Butterfly closure strips (10 pcs)
Extra large adhesive bandage (4 pcs)
Adhesive bandage (25 pcs)
Knuckle adhesive bandage (4 pcs)
Fingertip adhesive bandage (8 pcs)
Gauze swab (3 pcs)
1 Disposable cold compress
First aid tape (1 roll)
Cotton tip applicator (20 pcs)
1 Abdominal pad, Disposable vinyl gloves (1 pair)
1 Slim rescue howler whistle
1 Button Compass Liquid filled
1 Moleskin blister relief
1 Triangular bandage
1 Emergency blanket
1 Glow stick
1 Disposable raincoat
1 Scissors
PBT conforming bandage 5 x 3.6 cm (1 roll)
1 CPR face mask
1 Metal tweezers
Eye pad (2 pcs)
Elbow/knee bandage (2 pcs)
Safety pins (4 pcs)
Sting relief pads (2 pcs)

That's a lot of stuff in one small first aid kit. There is enough to handle a camping or hiking trip, to keep around the house, in the office, in your vehicle, and more. It's small enough to not take up a lot of room in you vehicle, a desk drawer or your backpack. Some of the things in it I had not thought of having in a first aid kit, like a glow stick, but now it makes sense to me seeing it in one.

The material the bag is made of is a durable canvas, although it is not waterproof. I will probably stick it in a ziplock bag to protect it from the elements. There are 4 pockets, three of which are see through so you can find what you need quickly. There is a double zipper on the bag and two small handles for carrying. Actually with everything that is in it, you would think there is no more room for anything else, but there is. I plan on putting in a small flashlight, matches, and some pain reliever when we go places. I love that the bag has the extra room for a few more things to personalize it for your specific needs.

This is a very good first aid kit and it has everything you really need in an emergency until you can get to some place for help.It's a good investment to make!

Something I Think Everyone Should Have Handy At All Times

I generally am not someone who panics. I think part of that is that I tend to be prepared for things. When we travel I always have an emergency bucket with us that has all kinds of things in case we have a break down or get stuck somewhere. In my purse I carry all kinds of extra little goodies just in case. When friends of mine are looking for something in particular, they tend to ask me since they know I carry some unusual things in my bag. Someday I may tell you all about it.

Even at home I have things stashed for emergencies from candles and waterproof matches to extra foods that are shelf stable (like milk). I'm really not sure where I got the idea to be prepared, but I am glad I did since it has helped out more than once.

One new thing I like having around now is my Paracord Survival Bracelet. This is the neatest thing. Now I have had paracord around for a while. It's something that I think every home should have and every vehicle should have in the emergency bucket. But I have not had a bracelet made from paracord before now. I've known about them and am thrilled to have one now.

How is a paracord bracelet something you need for survival? Well simply it is a bunch of rope that you always have with you that takes up very little space and does not weigh a lot. You simply click it on your wrist and you have something along with you that can help to tie something in place, make a trap from, use to tow something, secure a splint on someone's leg or arm, make a clothes line to dry wet gear and clothes while camping, and many more things. Anyplace you may need some rope this will help out with. Paracord is some of the sturdiest, strongest, light weight, and most durable rope you can have. It can get wet and cut and it won't fray or wear out.

But this bracelet is more than just paracord. The clasp is also a whistle that does not look like a whistle! If a person does not know better, they won't realize the whistle is right there on your wrist. As a woman, having something with me that is not very noticeable yet might help get the attention of others who can help me or to be able to scare away an attacker, is vital! The whistle is loud and shrill. It's bound to be heard very well for a long distance yet only you will know you have it. That's a good thing!

Like I said, I don't tend to panic, but I like to be prepared! This paracord Survival bracelet is one way I am prepared and always will be! It will either be on my wrist or in my car or in my purse! You never know when you might need it.
