It could be something familiar or a good luck charm, which are important in a survival situation. You might as well make a good luck charm that has use outside of sentimental value. If my daughter had made the bracelet for me and I found myself out there in a survival situation, then that bracelet would rank up there on the scale of importance. It would help me keep my spirits up and may help me hang a tarp or whatever.
