partition

Evacuation shelters are places where many people gather, and staying in the same space with others can unknowingly cause stress.
These partitions help protect privacy, reduce the stress that gradually builds up, and support maintaining health to get through a disaster.
They use simple materials—cardboard and packing tape—and the process is straightforward: assemble panels and leg parts made from cardboard.
Since a partition falling over would be a nuisance, be sure to stack and secure the pieces firmly so it’s stable and sturdy.
How to convert an AA battery into a D battery

There may be times when you need a size D battery but only have AA batteries.
For such situations, let’s learn how to turn a AA battery into a D battery.
It might sound tricky, but don’t worry.
Basically, you just wrap cardboard around the AA to make it the same thickness as a D battery.

We introduced DIY disaster-preparedness items you can make using everyday materials. These projects may look simple, but they can be a huge help in an emergency. Follow each step carefully and try making these safety items with your family. Preparing in advance leads to a safer, more secure life.
