Book Lights for Kids During Power Outages

Before you have a power outage or a tornado warning, buy several disposable LED book lights at the Dollar Store. It's easiest to find them in the Fall, right before Halloween. They are great for kids (and adults) because they easily clip on to a book or to your coat or shirt.

You can even clip them on to your headboard. If each child has their own disposable light, there's less of chance they'll be afraid, and they can take them to the bathroom with them. And at only one dollar each, it's cheaper than buying new batteries!
