One of the most rewarding things in life is the ability create things. As a Prepper, I really enjoy “Do It Yourself” projects that help me to discover new ways for my family to become more self sufficient. One of my favorite things to do on a Saturday is scour through my folder of “How To” articles and pick out a family project to get involved in.
Here I’ve compiled this list with some of my favorite guides to get you started:
Food
Drinks
Hygiene Products
Health and Nutrition
Survival Gear
Household Items
Please let me know if you have any good resources I might have missed!

Great composition of resources here – thanks!
You should also do one for kids there are TONS of articles out there with free DIY projects for kids. When my kids get bored I just tell them to go pick a project to do. The only catch is they have to clean up all the mess when they're done! ;-)

Alcoholic drinks don't help at all then thirsty, in fact they make you even more thirsty, its simply idiotic that a survival person would carry them around when needing to survive. Coffee is useless aswell, it does nothing to help you wake up, if you drink it a lot you get addicted and so when you dont drink it you get drowsy and tired, which is why it has the 'effect' of waking you up. It's just plain stupid that someone would carry make-up (lip gloss) when there are things walking about eating eachother. Why didn't she have a toothbrush and toothpaste ans yet had lip gloss? And why have food that expires extremely easily like yogurt, cheese and butter.
One of the main reasons for packing high alcohol content drinks is for a morale boost in a horrible time. After a long day of trying not to die, one might actually have their spirits lifted with a quick shot of their favorite alcohol. Not to mention depending on what kind of drink it is it can be used to fuel a torch or get a fire started in wet conditions.
