How To Survive A Zombie Apocalypse! Part 1

Halloween and the new season of The Walking Dead has me thinking about how we would really survive a zombie apocalypse. There is going to be several parts to this series. Any of these tips can be used in any type of apocalypse. Not just zombies.

Let's get started:

WEAPONS

 The type of weapon you choose can make a huge difference. I am a firm believer in having several different types. Some people think to just have guns and ammo, but they make a ton of noise and you will eventually run out of ammo. 

You need to have swords, baseball bats, golf clubs, knives, axes, crossbows, crowbar, machete and any other type of weapons. You could easily make your own using a club and anything sharp to put into it to make it deadly. Going for the head of a zombie will be easy with any type of weapon that you can hit them with. 

The best type of weapon will allow you to keep a distance away from the zombie while you are putting it out of its misery. You want it to be low maintenance and be long lasting. It should be something that is easy to use.

PART 2 SOON -

What Educents customers are saying about Times Tales:

"Fun and effective! Did in 2 weeks what other curriculum didn't do in a year!"
"My kids did NOT want to like this when I first opened it up, but they ended up liking it a LOT! They kept trying to "figure it out" so it took a while for my 2nd and 4th grader to just relax and watch the stories. We followed the recommended pace, and in 2 weeks this DVD solidified what other methods could not do for them in a year! Even my 3 yr old shouts out the answers to some of the quiz questions! Of course she doesn't understand what she's learning yet, but when her time comes, learning her multiplication facts will be painless and easy :) Definitely recommend this program to anyone who has stressed over drilling boring multiplication facts into their kids! You WILL Love it! :)" -ML
"I can’t even imagine how many less papers my 5th grade teacher would have had to grade if we had this in my elementary school! We did multiplication drills every single day during our 2nd semester! Using this DVD really beats that." - Celena J.
