I bought my son some of the “I Survived...” books and he really enjoyed reading them. I recently got him books from the series “Can You Survive...”. These books are awesome, they are the choose your own adventure type books so the kiddos reading actually have some choices to make in order to “survive” until the end of the story. This is a neat little check on their prepping skills as well as critical decision making and cause and effect. I purchased the titles “Can You Survive...Nationwide Blackout”, “...Pandemic” and “...Earthquake” to start. There are also historically themed titles in this series such as Titanic, Oregon Trail and others that are more generic such as living in the jungle. I’d highly recommend these books, my son loved them and has read them multiple times as he can get different outcomes with different choices throughout the book. I’ve read two of them myself and found them to be a lot of fun as well. Try them out with your kiddos, I bet they’ll really enjoy them. Thank you for this video!
Cheers for this, I been tryin to find out about "outdoor survival skills games" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Lidacoob Protection Percipience - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my co-worker got cool success with it.
My most profound survival event was hurricane Hugo. I was living with a family in South Carolina at ground zero where it hit. My value to the community became that I knew how to do a lot of things such as fix motors on generators, repair broken machines and tools, do basic carpentry, buck downed trees, make use of perishable foods by concocting large pots of soups and stews, etc. what I didn’t know, but learned was how to manage distraught disoriented and traumatized people. It was by finding the most distraught and teaching them to do something that I helped with that aspect. Keeping people focused on an achievable improved future, no matter how small the achievement was helpful. Some become obsessed with what was lost, and the sooner they get focused on rebuilding the better.
Nice post reminds me something I heard about holocaust survival. The ones who did the best in the camps were the ones who helped others. By focusing on others it helped them forget their own hell. This is often the cure for lots of depression. People get depressed thinking about themselves and their worries... when they start caring about others they get out of the funk. Being out in nature is great too. I’m glad you helped others help themselves and others and I’m sure it’s helped you as well.
This is part of the reason I don’t want to get an RV- I want my children to grow up tent camping and gain basic survival skills. It’s hard with little ones but so worth it.
I grew up camping and hunting in the winter with a tent and that's always been my favorite way of camping now I go out once a month with my kids and show them the difference in hot weather and cold weather
Love this. For our homeschool this year we are teaching alot of survival and life skills. How to harvest, forage, prepare and all that good stuff I will be your advice. We had an ice storm here in Texas and our power and water was off for over 36 hours. We luckily had a gas stove and I was able to cook and I even steamed some biscuits in our below freezing kitchen! I want to be prepared next time that happens and the kids too....or for anything else that may arise.
Watchung your videos now - renewing my cpr/first aid so they are watching with me - they will each take it and Hunter Safety one at a time. This is my 3rd generation, they do not do video games, bugs - yuk, prepping is a must we live in uncertain times. Char box, tents, yes. I actually have my oldest son's fire tent when he was volunteering for the National Parks and working the fire lines. I always held it now I am glad I did with all these fires. I should show them all the foods in the kitchem that are flamable and easy to start a camp fire (if you don't eat them all - yay Fritos. LOL!
Four children, ages 1-13, survived 40 days in the Amazon Jungle, and made all shows about surviving a week in the wilderness a complete joke. All children should be taught how to survive on their home planet, but such knowledge is lost to most humans. Luckily, the kids were Native Americans, members of a tribe that have kept that ancient knowledge alive.
I figure providing the WiFi password and an extra charge cable is good enough! 😂 children may not be a liability in an emergency when you consider them food!
Every single day when I wake up, one of the first things out of my mouth is... "Thank you Lord, I have NO children." I hope HE'S not tired of hearing it, BECAUSE I REALLY DO mean it.
Some preppers crack me up. They ask questions about their elaborate food hording and other things that don't even touch on true survival. Anyway, I'm teaching families in Maine.

Hi
If you've reached 20 and can't make a fire your parents failed you.
This is part of the reason I don’t want to get an RV- I want my children to grow up tent camping and gain basic survival skills. It’s hard with little ones but so worth it.

My 3 year old got her first pocket knife last month and she can't stop telling everyone the proper way to use a knife haha I love it.
Thanks!
Thank you so much Travis for addressing so many prepper topics that many others don't.
I have a small portable solar set up with 3 bulbs - Ive use in my kitchen for 2 years now. I love this it is small and portable.

In the extra place that we have outside our house not the front of the backyard it's a weird place but we have so many sticks in there 🙂😃😁😑

I hope HE'S not tired of hearing it, BECAUSE
I REALLY DO mean it.
Dope Content 🤘🏼😎💯💧
Poorly titled video didn't really go over specific skills that would benefit the child
We’re all so concerned about staying alive when we will all inevitably die. Blinders off, people.

Didn't teach anything just talking...👎
90% of survival is mentality.
