Instructions:
Preparing this kit is simple, gather all or some of the 'ingredients' listed below and place them in a zip top bag. Print out the list of ingredients and each one's meaning to give along with the bag. You can use card stock to create a bag tag as I did or you can make a little card. I have included the tag I made - feel free to print it out and use it.
Choose one or all of these survival kit ingredients, or you can think of your own:

Here is the tag I used, in both JPG and PDF formats. Feel free to print it out and use it. Your best bet may be to save it to your computer and open it using a graphics program so you can print it out the desired width (however wide your bag is).
