Disaster Ready Kids: Be Flood Ready, Families!

BE FLOOD-READY, FAMILIES.

A new typhoon is approaching Luzon this weekend. Let’s prepare, not just our homes, but our hearts. πŸ’™

πŸͺ£ Preparation lessens panic.
When kids know what’s happening, they feel safer.
When families plan together, they stay calmer.

πŸ’‘ Before the storm:
• Pack go bags: clothes, food, meds, flashlight, docs.
• Move valuables up high.
• Charge phones.
• Talk to your kids about what to expect.
• Don’t forget your pets!

🌊 During the storm:
• Follow PAGASA and LGU updates.
• Evacuate early if near rivers or flood-prone areas.
• Keep calm. Your calm helps your child feel safe.

☀️ After the flood:
• Wait for clearance before returning home.
• Avoid floodwater.
• Listen to your children’s stories. It helps them recover.

πŸ“š My Disaster Ready Kids books: Fire, Earthquake, Flood, Volcano, use stories to help kids prepare mentally and emotionally for disasters. Because being ready is an act of love.
