26 Mental & Urban Life Skills

In recent years, lots of survival and preparedness books have been written, some for children. The problem is that they don’t always discuss basic skills at all. For example, bartering is a great skill to have (including at yard sales) but it’s really hard to barter effectively unless you have an idea what items are worth and how much you need (budgeting). From basic financial savvy and emotional control to self defense and what to do if you are lost, this book covers skills that kids and adults can use in everyday life or emergencies. It even covers basic auto maintenance and driving skills. We can all learn to stay safe and help those around us stay safe, too. Everyone wins!
