The only world event that has no (!) achievements for anyone below level 10.
Shame :(

I am still hoping for Blizzard to remove the level 10 requirement of this event.

I wonder is there any undead that give free candies to the kids it will be kinda creepy.

I need some help here.
Last Year(2009) i did 2 achievements(Aw,isn't it cute?) and (Home alone) and this year(2010) i cant get the whistle.
What should i do ?

Kommentar von 584003

if you did dalaran last year dont think you can do it this year, but should be able to do the one in shat or ogrim....hope this helps

Kommentar von 212003

This event is soooooo cheap cuz mages can just yeleport to all the nearest major cities and get to places faster for the quests

Stop QQing and roll a mage.

Kommentar von 385649

I tested a few ways to try and get the Dalaran quest again this year and couldn't. Til i logged on a toon that did Not do it last year, it seems Blizz just forgot to reset it for people to do it again to get the 2nd pet this year. Hopefully they will fix it later.

Kommentar von tractor

Year 2010 event had several issues that will hopefully be fixed. If not, keep this in mind:

Start doing School of Hard Knocks early. Battlegrounds are chaotic and you may end up waiting over 2 hours in queue (not sure how they can solve it, but this is a problem) and still being unable to complete the objective. Or even worse: complete the objective and realise that your orphan is not out, because you were killed meanwhile (really annoying problem that should be solved).
Whistles have duration of 7 days and can call your orphan even after the event ends, but this is of little practical use. It's confusing to keep these things out of sync. Orphans allow you to do their quests, but at least in Dalaran's case the Matron disappears when the event ends and you can't return your orphan. Blizz should make those NPCs permanent or despawn whistles and orphans at event's end too.
People who completed Dalaran orphan quest last year were not able to do it this year.
Achievements are worded "with your orphan out". That wording and ability to summon orphans past event's end lead to a conclusion that you can still complete them. I tried and it didn't work with School of Hard Knocks and Hail To The King, Baby, so it's probably impossible with other achievements too. They should also say "during Chilren's Week" or despawn whistles and orphans at event's end.

New pet reward in 2011: Schneckenhaus

Kommentar von 612611

2 new pets have been added in the 2011 quest rewards: Beinchen from Shattrah City and Schneckenhaus from Stormwind

Kommentar von davety

You can now get the second pet from doing the Northrend quest chain!

Kommentar von davety

This is all I know about it. I did the Northrend quest chain 2 years ago and got the Curious Oracle Hatchling. I did it last year and didn't get a pet. I then did it this morning and got the Curious Wolvar Pup. I do know that you have to do the quest chain for the specific pet that you want. I hope this helps.

Kommentar von Iketani

Does anyone know if you can only get 1 pet reward per year? Like..for example I missed the Burning crusade pet rewards, and the 2011 childrens week as well. Is it impossible for me to catch up in 2012?

http://www.wowhead.com/guide=5.0&petbattles

In Mists of Pandaria pets will be shared between all characters on the same account. Therefore I suggest that if you don't have all the Children's Week pets that you get different ones on each of your characters, that way when they are shared you will have all pets on all characters.

Kommentar von 987437

2011 was my first year of doing the children's week achieves and for some reason i was able to get two pets from the matron in org and outlands.is this normal? i was alos able to get both the oracle orphan and wolvar orphan that same week.some clarity on this would be greatly appreciated! :3

Kommentar von 974472

I wonder : Why are these pets still soulbound ?

Maybe , it's time to remove this useless requirement ?

Kommentar von direpath

For Pet Collectors and Traders:

All of the pets from the Orgrimmar/Stormwind, and Shattrath orphanages are cageable. The Dalaran pets are not.

Kommentar von Rj23

If you are trying to optimize your number of pets added, you can now do this in Org, Shat and Dalaran. So you really can pick up a lot of pets if you use multiple toons and do all three locations. Happy Hunting!

Kommentar von 605734

As of right now, if you were to do this World Event on only one character and were going for the pets, it would take you a good four years to get all of them if you don't hop on different characters and do the orphan quests.

So, in conclusion, it can take you 1-4 years to get it, 1 being the one time you went for all the pets, 4 being for having only one character get the pets.

Kommentar von 737521

There doesn't seem to be an updated/recent comment with the step by step for this event, so allow me. Also, my apologies ahead of time for broken tags. I fought with them several times but WoWhead is being a royal butthole at the moment and they don't want to work. Still, if you hover over them, it will still link you to the correct quest link.

I currently play Horde, thus I started with the Orgrimmar Orphanage. Waisenmatrone Schlachterbe is the start of the quest line and she can be found at the coords 57.95, 57.62, right in front of the Orgrimmar Orphanage in The Drag. She gave me the quest titled, of course, Children's Week and it gave me Pfeife des Orcwaisenkindes.

Use the whistle and the Orc orphan then gives you three quests: Ein Ritt auf der Raketenbahn, Die Bansheekönigin and Der gefallene Häuptling.

For Ridin' the Rocketway, your in game quest helper will tell you to go to the south end ramp. ~~This is WRONG.~~ You need to head just BARELY North East of Gallywix Pleasure Palace to the Terminus there. Get out your orphan, click the green arrow on the rocket and enjoy the ride. You'll turn in the quest to the orphan when the ride is over.

EDIT: Apparently, the rocket may be on any of the terminals throughout Azshara. You just have to go from one to the next until you find it.

For The Banshee Queen, all you need to do is go to Under City, head to the Throne room and get out your orphan. It's a pretty easy quest.

For The Fallen Chieftain, simply head to Mulgore. Red Rocks is the utmost North East corner of the map. Whistle for your orphan and complete the quest. Once you complete the initial three quests, your orphan will give you two more quests: Drachensteigen and Lecker Eis.

Both of these are pretty simple and take you back to Orgrimmar to complete.The Cold of Cone shop is in The Goblin Slums. Blax Bottlerocket is pushing his toy cart up the main road of the drag and usually can be found directly in front of the orphanage.

After completing these two quests, your Orc Orphan will give you one final quest; Tageseltern der Horde. This the the quest that you'll choose your pets from. After going back to Blax Bottlerocket, you will have the option of choosing between 6 items: Schweinehalsband (Mr. Wiggles), Schildkrötenkiste (Speedy), Rattenkäfig (Whiskers), Schneckenhaus (Scooter the Snail), Magisches Leckerli (x25) or Griesgrams Bestechungsgeld (A whopping 5 gold). You'll turn this final quest into Waisenmatrone Schlachterbe.

Now, before I completed any of my Org orphan's quests, I immediately went to Dalaran to find out, since other comments and posts here seemed to go back and forth on the subject, if I could indeed pick up orphans in the other cities this year, as well.

You can ABSOLUTELY, in one year, have more than one orphan at a time.

In Dalaran, if you head to the center statue at The Eventide, Waisenmatrone Aria will be there with a choice between two quests: Kleines Waisenkind Kekek von den Wolvar or Kleines Waisenkind Roo von den Orakeln. You may only choose one per year to do. As I already did the Oracle chain last year, I chose the Wolvar, thus this walk-through won't have the Oracle orphan quest chain (unless I get around to adding it later).

After picking up your Wolvar, blow the whistle and then click on the Matron again. She'll basically just tell you that hey, you can take care of ONE of these orphans, but not both. Then the orphan quests become available.
The first quest is just a short one in which the Wolvar asks you to take him to hunt. Click okay and this opens up the first three quests.

Quest one: Heimat der Bärenleute. Take your orphan to Grizzlemaw in Grizzly Hills.

Quest two: Der Bronzedrachenschrein. Take your orphan to the coords 71.5, 37.3 just a skip Northwest of Wintergarde Keep in Dragonblight.

Quest three: Spielgefährten!. This quest is also in Dragonblight. Take your little Wolvar to about 45,61 to 45-64, just a short ways above Moa'ki Harbor.

Completion of these three will open two more.

Quest four: Die Drachenkönigin will take you back to Dragonblight, this time to Wyrmrest Temple so your orphan can meet Alexstrasza the Life-Binder.

Quest five: Der mächtige Hemet Nesingwary sends you off to Sholazar Basin to see Hemet Nesingwary at the Nesingwary Base Camp.

After completing those two, your Wolvar will give you the quest that takes you back to Dalaran. Ein Besuch bei den Wunderwerken. Go to the toy shop in Dalaran and buy your Wolvar a paper zeppelin. Throw the zeppelin to your pet, he will run and chase it and bring it back. Then you can turn the quest in.

Finally, you will get the quest Zurück zum Waisenhaus. Once you go back to the Matron Aria, you will turn this quest in and return your orphan to her.

NOTE: Do not panic when you turn the final quest in to the Matron and she only gives you 9 gold and and says goodbye. Your wolvar pet will be sent to you by mail and should immediately show up.

Finally, Shattrath!

You'll find Waisenmatrone Gnädig in Lower City. Coords are 75.04, 47.66. She will give you the Blood Elf or Draenei whistle. Clearly, as I mentioned, I play Horde, so I will be giving you the run down of the Blood Elf orphan's quests.

The first quest is just your new orphan telling you how excited she is to see places. Once you complete it, like the other orphans, she'll give you three quests to do.

Quest one: Hch'uu und das Pilzvolk Take your orphan to Sporeggar in Zangarmarsh. Whistle for her and then talk to Hch'uu. Quest done.

Quest two: Eine Reise zum Dunklen Portal This quest is pretty self-explanatory and the glitches from last year seem to be fixed. You whistle while standing in front of the portal, and Boom. Done.

Quest three: Besuch beim Thron der Elemente This one is also easy. Take the orphan to Nagrand to the Throne of Elements on your map. Whistle for her, and you'll be able to turn in the quest to Elementaristin Sharvak.

The next two quests that open are:

Quest four: Nun, wenn ich einmal groß bin... This one, you head off to Silvermoon, run on down to the Walk of Elders, and call your orphan. She'll run around talking to the Chieftains and playing air guitar for a minute, then the quest will be complete.

Quest five: Zeit die Höhlen zu besuchen Fly to Tanaris in Kalimdor and head east to the Caverns of Time. When you go in, fly until you reach the Quartermaster Alurmi and buy her a toy dragon. Fly on a little further and stand in front of the dragon Zaladormu. Make sure your orphan is out for both.

The final quest is Zurück zum Waisenhaus. Once again, this is the quest that will allow you to choose another of the pets that gives you credit towards Tierhüterveteran. You will then be able to choose between Ei des Kolumbus, Elekkhalsband (Peanut), Schläfriger Willy, Beinchen or Magisches Leckerli (x25).

KEEP IN MIND, In order to finish the achievement Tierhüterveteran, you need to collect Egbert, Peanut AND Willy and you can only choose one per year. Buying them on the Auction House does NOT award this achievement and you can only get it by visiting the Shattrath Orphan Matron once a year for three years and picking a different pet each year.

Happy Children's Week, everyone :)

Kommentar von Tontons

Did all chains on 3 ally chars and goind for two more. This seems to be the fastest route if you are not a mage:

Pick up orphan in Stormwind. Do Rund um den Schlund in Westfall, then go to Ironforge for Der größte Diamant aller Zeiten!.
Get to Shattrath. Pick up orphan and do all three Outland quests (Terokkar->Nagrand->Hellfire seems the shortest order here).
Get to Exodar or Darnassus. Do quests in one of these cities and then use the portal to the other city to do quests there. (You have to do a human quest in Darnassus and two draenish in Exodar.)
Get to Dalaran and do all the Northrend quests of your chosen pet.
Use portal in Violet Citadel in Dalaran to get to Caverns of Time and do Zeit die Höhlen zu besuchen.
Get to Shattrath and Stormwind to finish draenish and human quest lines.

How to Get to ...?
I get to Shattrath and Exodar/Darnassus by hearthing to Shrine of Seven Stars and using portals there. Cooldown should be over while you fly around the Outland and do Dalaran.
I get to Dalaran using Fingerreif der Kirin Tor.
In the end I get to Shattrath as before - by hearthing and then use Wappenrock der Wächter von Baradin to get to Stormwind which is just a portal away.
If you don't have the ring or tabard, I'm afraid you have to wait out the hearthstone cooldown or do some quests on another char meanwhile...

For the Northrend quests - I think this is clearly the fastest order:

Fly to Grizzly Hills for Der grööößte Baum überhaupt!/Heimat der Bärenleute
Dragonblight for Der Bronzedrachenschrein/Der Bronzedrachenschrein. If doing the Wolvar questline, you also do Spielgefährten! and Die Drachenkönigin here.
(oracle questline only) Borean Tundra for Spielgefährten!.
Scholazar Basin for Der mächtige Hemet Nesingwary or portal from Scholazar to Un'goro Crater for Einen Großen treffen (don't forget to use portal to get back to Scholazar).
(oracle questline only) Dragonblight for Die Drachenkönigin.
Dalaran (fly or use ring) to finish the questline.

Kommentar von Stizelswik

Am I understanding this correctly... that you have to go to the different areas each year to do them? Is it so that only one of our toons can do them? I thought they all would be able to...

I tried checking on different toons on different realms and in different areas but no matron has the quest ! over them after I completed the first day for the one in SW with my main. I did it last year and now have Edgert, and Peanut, but not Willy.

Any polite help is much appreciated. Thanks :)

10. Hearth to Shrine of the Seven Stars
11. Take portal to Dalaran
12. Dalaran – Pick up Wolvar orphan
13. Grizzly Hills – Home of the Bear-Men
14. Dragonblight – The Bronze Dragonshrine

17. Sholazar Basin – The Mighty Hemet Nesingwary
18. Take flight path/fly back to Dalaran

21. Take portal to Tanaris (Caverns of Time)
22. Tanaris (Caverns of Time) – Time to Visit the Caverns
23. Hearth to your Garrison
24. Take flight path/fly or take portal to Ashran
25. Take portal to Darnassus
26. Darnassus – Malfurion Has Returned!
27. Take portal to Exodar
28. Exodar – The Seat of the Naaru
29. Exodar – Call on the Farseer

35. Stormwind – Let’s Go Fly a Kite
36. Stormwind – A Warden of the Alliance *Get Reward*

Kommentar von Scoobydeux

The orphans despawn easily if you travel (looked to be a server side issue, might be related to uptime and loading), so make sure (one of) your orphan(s) is out when you do something toward an achievement that requires that the orphan is present. You will not get credit if your orphan is not visible. Also, make sure it's your orphan, not another player's orphan.

The orphan is a pet, (s)he replaces and is replaced by a pet if you put one out. (The orphan is much like the old school pets where you had to carry an inventory item for each one.) If you participate in pet battles, your battle pet may replace your orphan after the battle. In particular, if you are using the pet battle dailies for credit for the Tägliche Mühen achievement, make sure your orphan is visible after the battle, before you turn in the daily.

Any of the three SW or Org/Shattrath/Dalaran orphans count as an orphan for each incremental step toward these achievements. You do not have to be consistent about which one you use. You can use these orphans after you turn in their final quests; the whistles persist for the duration of Children's Week. You can carry forward progress from year to year, if you fail to complete an achievement.

Each individual achievement must, however, be done on a single toon. Different toons can do different achievements for account credit, and achievements can be repeated by different toons.

Sure is nice to be paying for Wowhead, only to be able to read material that has not been updated since 2014 - MoP. Gotta love it.

Kommentar von Tannarah

Just notice that there's 4x new pets under Children's Week, they are:
Beakbert a turtle
Froglet a little frog
Mr. Crabs another aquatic (obviously re: spongebob reference)
and Scaley, a little dragon pet,
With these 4x are they introduced for this Children's Week coming up on 2-9 May/19?
and If so where do we find them? I really want to try to get them and I am almost positive
others are wanting the same.
thanks see you all at Children's week :)!

Kommentar von Zephyr19

The starting quest for the new Children's week event starts in the orphanage in Hook Point In Boralus. Coords: 48.12, 40.21. Orphan Matron Westerson is the quest giver.

Kommentar von bellygrub

Can we only do these quests once per year per character?

Kommentar von JonGhost52

New quest starts for Horde in Zuldazar, Dazar'Alor : talk to Caretaker Padae, she is in the Grand Bazaar area in front of the Hall of Caste, right next to the inn "Spirits be with you" (she is NOT in the Great Seal).
For TomTom /way 53 85

Kommentar von Nbortz

This comment is not helpful in the least, but I really dislike the new orphan. Every time she says, "Are you walking away from ME?" I want to punt her.

Kommentar von Coriam

Currently (2:30 AM) this page says 'Starts at 12:00 AM' and 'Event is currently in progress'. Both of these are false (edit: over on the East Coast US). Both of these are presumably also based off the in-game calendar, which also shows the event as starting at 12:01 AM and active, yet none of the various Matrons have quests for me on either Horde or Alliance characters.

Best guess? The event actually starts at 12:01 AM Pacific time, but Blizzard forgot to notate such in-game, and by extension, Wowhead wasn't able to update their info correctly. That said, Blizzard also hasn't bothered to update their own website about the event since 2012, so I suppose I should be thankful the event is on the in-game calendar in the first place.

Kommentar von Zalkuz

Didn't see this mentioned but you can use a class trial to get the other reward pets too. I just did the Orgrimmar chain and got one of the pets at the end.

Kommentar von Neko7

2019/2020 BFA Children week.
If you play horde, complete the Zandalari children week chain, get your pet, but don't leave yet, stay and observe your orphan from a distance, you might learn that your orphan may be, in fact, less innocent than he seems...

Kommentar von Liike

For Children's Week, here is the list of pets if you're having a hard time finding them:

Scaley
Mr. Crabs (heh)
Froglet
Beakbert

Happy hunting!

Kommentar von Neurot1C

I tried to do the achievement "School of Hard Knocks" in the Arathi Basin Blizzard that's up with Children's week right now, but it didn't count. So I guess these Custom/Brawl battlegrounds won't work for this achievement that is required for the meta. Do it in the regular ones!

Kommentar von Nathaniel1982

Make sure to get your Yellow Balloon if you use Theotar as your soulbind. With his Token of Appreciation you can be invulnerable. Blizzard does not seem to want to fix this bug.

Just wanted to comment to point out that School of Hard Knocks has been removed from the meta achievement.
