Wildfires are naturally occurring or man made events which can appear suddenly and do horrific damage to huge areas within hours. Anyone who has lived in California the last couple of years knows first-hand what I'm talking about.

If you live in an area where wildfires can occur you must be prepared ahead of time, because when they hit you would have to leave in a moments notice.

The most important determinant for survival in stressful environments is a persons mental state.

A Positive Mental Attitude (PMA) can overcome the harshest of obstacles.

Most survivalist teachers consider it more important than even water and food, and when you deeply examine the impact it has on your survival chances you quickly understand why.

This is an especially critical consideration if you have to keep children entertained and distracted during an extended period away from their homes.
