72 Hour Kit Ideas
72 Hour Kit
Materials Needed
- 1 Clean Dried 1 Gallon Milk Jug with lid
- Scissors
- Duct Tape
- Paper Back First Aid book
- Ball point pen
- Emergency Candle (made from soup can)
- Clean empty vegetable can
Food Items needed:

With handle of milk jug facing you, cut on each side of opening -O-, down about 3 inches and around toward the opposite corner from handle leaving about 2" at that corner for the front to fold open.
Make sure inside of carton is clean and DRY!
Place First Aid book in first, then insert emergency candle inside the vegetable can (this can be used for warming water and soup over the candle) add it to the jug next.
Place the packages of hot chocolate around the edges of jug, then fill jug with remaining items as will fit. EVERYTHING WILL FIT!!!
Trust me!!!
Add the first aid kit last as this needs to be easily accessible.
Other items such as money, medications and emergency numbers should be added if necessary.
We made an emergency card to place inside with our name, name of family members in our home, each person's ss#, blood type, medical needs, etc.
Also, a menu card was included which follows:
