By now I hope every household has put together a well-equipped home emergency kit. In addition to food, water, blankets, an easy-to-use LED flashlight, an emergency LED lamp and standard first aid kit items, families with small or younger children may want to consider investing in the new Talking First Aid kit recently made available.

Intelligent First Aid has come out with a new Talking First Aid Kit that includes all the typical bandages and anti-septic along with illustrated instruction cards that instruct users on how to handle nine common injuries. These cards outline how to handle things from bleeding to bug bites. There is also a handy audio feature on each card to assist smaller children who may still be learning to read. At the push of a button, a calm voice will walk you through the steps outlined on each card and the audio portion can be paused or repeated if necessary. 

These cards do not just relate to household emergencies either. Some would be helpful additions to your hiking or camping survival kit as well. Take applicable cards with you next time you hit the trails with your family.

The kits cost $129.99 and can be purchased at www.intelligentfirstaid.com
