What to do with empty 72 hr survival kit bucket...

I was wanting to use my empty 72 hour survival ki bucket to make a survival car kit for my daughter. But, my little man found it and decided he needed it for his crayons! That's ok, I guess, just goes to show you that there are many things that you can do with one of those buckets!
