It is a simple afternoon project that builds real confidence and earns your family the Road Ready badge in the Outside app.

Quest 21 asks your family to build a Go-Bag Lite together: a light, capable outing pack loaded with water, snacks, a first-aid kit, a light source, and a few basic tools. Ninety minutes of planning and packing gives every member of the family a real role and a real reason to head out the door. Complete the quest in the Outside app and earn the Ready Pack badge.

The Emergency Contact Quest turns a simple household task into a genuine family outing: gather your people, head outside, and build the one document that keeps everyone connected when plans go sideways. Forty-five minutes of easy conversation earns your family the Contact Keeper badge in the Outside app. It is the kind of afternoon that feels light and leaves something lasting.

Family Radio Check is Week 34 of Outside's 52-week quest calendar, a 60-minute backyard-to-trail adventure where families test walkie-talkies and backup communication tools together.

Week 18 of the Outside family quest calendar sends your crew on a 45-minute walk through your own home and yard to check fire extinguishers, test smoke alarms, and lock in a family meeting spot. It is practical, it is fast, and it turns a safety drill into an adventure the whole family will actually want to repeat.
Weekly Quest
First Aid Finder is Week 11 of Outside's 52-week family quest calendar. In about 45 minutes, your family gathers the first aid kit, learns what every item does, and picks a spot everyone can find in a hurry. Kids come away knowing they can handle small scrapes and big moments alike.
Weekly Quest
The Power Outage Mini Drill turns off the nonessential lights for one hour so your family can practice staying calm, capable, and well-lit using nothing but your backup gear. It is a hands-on confidence builder that feels less like homework and more like a camping night at home. Families who run it once almost always want to do it again.
Weekly Quest
The 24-Hour Light Plan is a 45-minute family quest that turns a simple question into a genuine household discovery: how would your family keep the lights on if the grid went quiet for a day? Completed inside the Outside app, it builds real energy-planning know-how while giving everyone a shared mission they will actually enjoy. Week 30 of the 52-week quest calendar, it earns the Light Keeper badge and 300 XP.
