It's one of the kindest remarks I've received here. I feel humbled by your high praise.I'm just an average guy.When I think of ancestors and all they could do, I feel like a greenhorn by comparison. Hurricane Sandy action reports from preppers: http://www.survivalblog.com/cgi-bin/mt5/mt-search.cgi?search=hurricane+sandy&IncludeBlogs=2&limit=20 If you'd like to see what happens to society from actual reports from well prepared people, then look at the link above. They explain how things unfolded; what worked and what didn't; what things they should have done differently; what they neglected to prepare for. [/quote]

There are many free homeschooling sites with pdf files. It would be great to have them just in case there are issues.
Get medications that your kids need. See if your doctor will prescribe 3 months supplies for them.
Get some presents tomorrow for Christmas. Little gifts that you could give out not only then, but throughout the year as incentives. They'll really appreciate them.
Children can thrive in the woods as long as they have calm parents. They cannot keep up with your pace up and down tails. You've got to plan adequately if you do have to walk some.
Kids are used to incorrectly using a backpack since kids at school wear them in the wrong fashion, which adds too much stress to their lower back. You'll have to reteach them how to buckle it properly and position it higher than they used to wearing it.
Try to make gathering wood into a game. Teach them as much about nature as possible. Being quiet is as important as talking.
Kids love open fires. Tell stories. It can simply be times when they did wonderful things when they were younger. They love hearing how much you love and adore them. Even teens.
Hug and kiss them often. Be generous with your affection. Lavish it on them
