World of Warcraft’s Children’s Week has undergone a significant overhaul, introducing a plethora of new content including four new orphans, a fresh currency, and various rewards. Players have the opportunity to adopt orphans, complete questlines for rewards, and trade in Well-loved Figurines.
Additionally, WoW Classic players can join in on the fun, earning experience, reputation, and pets through the event. The revamped Children’s Week is live in World of Warcraft until May 5, inviting players to explore the new quests and activities.
This short holiday enables players to temporarily adopt orphans from the many conflicts in Azeroth and embark on journeys while completing various quests. Despite receiving updates in the past, the last major enhancement occurred during the Battle for Azeroth expansion, when new orphans were introduced in Boralus and Dazar’alor.
After a six-year hiatus, Blizzard has now added substantial new content for Children’s Week. Players can adopt four new orphans from the prominent Renown factions in World of Warcraft: The War Within, including Skibbles the Kobold, Destien the Arathi, Kitzy the Goblin, and Threadis the Nerubian.
Questlines related to these characters can be started from Ullna, the Earthen Matron in Training located in Dornogal, running until May 4. Alongside the new orphans, players can earn Well-loved Figurines, a new currency specifically for the event.
These Figurines can be exchanged for exciting rewards from vendors like Jepetto Joybuzz in Dornogal, Brundia Braidhammer in Stormwind, and Leial Knitterton in Orgrimmar. Players can acquire new pets such as the Helpful Workshop Bot, Argos lynx, and Goggles hyena, as well as ensembles for the Children’s Stormwind and Orgrimmar Guard Weapon Sets.
Though no new achievements have been added besides the existing ones, fans can still work on the For the Children meta-achievement and progress towards the Violet Proto-Drake mount. Additionally, Children’s Week is available in WoW Classic during the same time frame, offering players a chance to adopt orphans and earn valuable rewards while boosting their characters through various quests.
