My poor little 3 yr. old always tosses her cookies on the windy country road to our good friend's house, lol. It's terrible! I've actually been working on getting our car kit all put together as well. I've created a printable spreadsheet of items to include in your kits, if anyone is interested. It's REALLY thorough :) <br /><br />http://newlifeonahomestead.com/2012/11/emergency-car-kit/<br /><br />Hope that helps spark some more ideas!Kendra at New Life On A Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17852423537026709246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-442120849666486527.post-1119619522493813912012-06-24T15:48:24.519-04:002012-06-24T15:48:24.519-04:00I'm late to posting this but wanted to share, ...I'm late to posting this but wanted to share, be careful about keeping nuts if you don't live in a very cool climate.

I learned a long time ago when my daughter was little and go car sick a lot. I would keep lunch sized paper bags along with grocery bags in the car. I would fold down the top of the paper bag about an inch, put it in the grocery bag, then when she would throw up, just roll down the paper bag, tie up the plastic and when you get to a garbage can, throw it away. I do this at home too, no barf bowl for me, eww!

On the bright side, you provided some excellent ideas on what to put in those kits!Tyra Shortinohttp://www.rayskillmanchevrolet.com/section/secondary/indianapolis-chevrolet-dealerships/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-442120849666486527.post-33703339416943671132011-10-27T15:56:27.883-04:002011-10-27T15:56:27.883-04:00For my car emergency kit I have barf bags.

Just in case one of my kids will throw up in the car, I can at least wipe them down (always have water) and get a change of clothes...if I get to the barf bag in time - that's all the better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-442120849666486527.post-30819275464346550292011-10-20T22:00:22.788-04:002011-10-20T22:00:22.788-04:00Thanks for this reminder post.

You do have younger children that could have used it! Miss you. Glad you are still doing the blog. <br /><br />I need to get busy on my car kit. I had a flat tire yesterday and had to figure out how to lower the tire under my SUV. Come to find out, I was missing the tools that were suppose to come with the vehicle and had to go out to the dealership before I could do it.<br /><br />I also found out that the jack that came with my SUV doesn't get it up off the ground enough without a wooden block to assist. Grateful it happened in my driveway so that I can make sure I am prepared for a flat away from home. That is my first order of business, then to get the rest of the kit taken care of.Candyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16334014247387323564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-442120849666486527.post-80753704510943850322011-10-20T06:45:46.046-04:002011-10-20T06:45:46.046-04:00Misty,

Just last month I totally forgot my diaper bag and didn't have diapers in my car kit, so my 9 month old went commando from swim team practice to home. It was very scary. :)Abshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09013720598678805719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-442120849666486527.post-14246114931815318292011-10-19T17:32:12.253-04:002011-10-19T17:32:12.253-04:00DIAPERS!

I keep some in the glove compartment and those get rotated pretty regularly, but I recently ran out, so I opened up the car kit. I only had newborn diapers! I've got two in diapers: 9 months and 2 yrs. Newborn did not work.Mistyhttp://www.yourownhomestore.comnoreply@blogger.com
