I'm designing a survival kit for a 12 year old boy(my nephew) to keep on his person in case of the unexpected. I'm trying to design it in such a way where he could carry it in his school backpack without causing problems. Schools tend to carry their zero-tolerance policies way too far and i could rant about it all day, but to be constructive, I'm looking for ideas as to what to include in this school-friendly survival kit.
For starters, I'm thinking abut building it into a small nalgene bottle so he'll have a water container and a water-tight survival kit. I'm also planning to include a flashlight, pencil sharpener, emergency whistle, button compass, magnifying glass, 20 ft of paracord, a heatsheet emergency blanket, some packets of trail mix.
I'm looking for ideas of what else to consider for these kits and I'm wondering if anybody else has build similar kits for their kids.
