I believe every parent should have a well stocked first aid kit and a good CPR book. You never know when you’ll need it, but if you do you’ll be ready. I personally like to use a mid size plastic container with latches and a carry handle. You want your box to be roomy enough to store all of your supplies, a solar blanket, and your CPR book. It’s a good idea to tape your list of emergency contact numbers to the top of your box. I buy an average sized first aid kit and then I add the items below if they are not included.
