How Kids Can Prepare for Hurricanes

Involve the whole family in safety planning

Go through your preparedness kit together: Let children test flashlights, count non-perishables and restock first aid kits.

Create and decorate a family contact list: Print emergency contacts and let little ones decorate before hanging on the fridge.

Prepare “no power” activity kits: Gather books, board games, puzzles and other toys to keep busy when the power goes out.

Track weather together: Make weather-tracking fun and ease young minds with regular hurricane season discussion.
