Children really do make your life better.

They're carefree, funny, and wise beyond their years.

As parents, we want the best for our kids and hate to imagine what it would be like if the unthinkable were to happen to them. But as survivalists, we also know that one must always be prepared for the worst — even when it comes to your kids.

When putting together your plan for SHTF, you should keep your children in mind. What special considerations will they need? What supplies should you pack for them? How will they stay entertained without modern conveniences like TV and internet?

The video below has some great ideas for how to prep with children. Check it out, and share your thoughts in the comments below.
