24/48/72 hour kits

The time approached to redo the emergency kits. At this point I'd say they are more toward 24 hour kits but my goal is to them to sustain us in an emergency for 72 hours. It might take some time, or maybe not. I need actually figure out how much more I need, but I do have inventory on what we have now.

The last time I did kits I had all the food in one kit and the baby stuff in the other. This time around I evened things out a bit. There is food in each kit along with a different source of how to cook. Each bag has supplies for one adult and enough for at least one child. I tried to get it where if each adult had a child and we somehow got separated no one would be without. My daughter is getting big enough to help out in the area of her kit so currently she has a backpack with a small food item, first aid kit, and personal hygiene kit...oh and a flashlight. At some point a book and toy will be added to the child bag.
