There are many times we hear stories of someone getting stuck somewhere and they end up eating bugs, leaves and things of nature. Well, I pray to God, I will never be in a situation like that with my kids so that is why I always keep a “lunch bag” packed with snacks and water just in case. It’s funny, but before I had kids, I never thought about packing anything. Now, I’m like a paranoid freak. Every time I get in my car and drive, I think of crazy things that can happen to us. Like if I get stuck in a snow storm or a ditch somewhere, I want to be prepared. By prepared, I mean not worrying about going hungry. If I get hurt, that’s another story.
You can pack things like pretzels, fruits, and vegetables. I even throw in some candy in there to get a sugar rush just in case I get tired.
Don’t forget to always have a first aid kit in the car too. You can purchase one at any Target store (they have the best Dollar Section ever! (Some items are a little bit over a dollar, but you can’t beat it) Also, try the 99 cent store around your neighborhood.
Hey, you never know what situation you might be in one day. Better to be safe then starving.
