Children grow and change quickly so rotating the clothing and shoes is important especially for young families. If there is an emergency you don’t want to end up with a whole bunch of expired food and clothes that don’t fit. It is a good idea to go through your kits every six months. It is helpful for some people to do it when the time changes (twice a year) so you can easily remember to check your kits. Keeping your family safe is first priority, so be prepared with the right supplies and alleviate one of your obstacles.
