Children's Week Holiday Guide
Holiday Enthusiasts have brought Children's Week in Silvermoon, located next to the Trading Post.
New Toy: Nap Mat
Despite the war in Silvermoon, there are no new orphans this year, but there is a new Nap Mat toy, which summons an interactable mat that players can use to catch a quick snooze. The additional reward can be purchased from Jepetto Joybuzz for the price of 1 Well-loved Figurine, acquired in lieu of choosing a companion pet upon completing orphan questlines.
Everyone could use a nap!
More Purchasable Pets
This year, Legs and Snail Shell have been added to the vendor, both for the cost of one Well-loved Figurine.
While these are not specifically new pets, both were inexplicably missing from the vendor last year, so this correction simply gives players another way to reliably acquire them.
Legs
Scooter the Snail
Each orphan questline rewards a different selection of pets, while the vendor offers them all, alongside various transmog and toys.
Champion the orphaned when you give back to the children of Azeroth during Children's Week—take an orphan under your wing and show them what the hero's life is like!

Orphans from All Over Azeroth
Visit Orphan Matron Nightingale in Stormwind, Orphan Matron Battlewail in Orgrimmar, Orphan Matron Mercy in Shattrath, Orphan Matron Aria in Dalaran, Caretake Padae in Dazar'alor, or Orphan Matron Westerson in Boralus, or Matron in Training Ullna in Khaz Algar and make a child's dream come true!
There are a handful of orphans, eager for adventure, to choose from:
Horde Orphans: Azala, Grunth, Salandria
Maybe little Salandria would like a visit to the Sunwell—hint, hint.
Alliance Orphans: Randis, Dornaa, and Liam
Neutral Orphans: Roo (Eventide and Dalaran), Kekek (Eventide and Dalaran), Destien (Azj-Kahet, Dornogal, and Undermine), Kitzy (Azj-Kahet, Dornogal, and Hallowfall), Skibbles (Dornogal), and Threadis (Azj-Kahet, Dornogal, and Hallowfall).
Currency and Rewards
Players can select the Well-loved Figurine as a reward for completing a Children's Week questline. The Well-loved Figurine is Warbound, takes up a bag slot, is only redeemable during Children's Week, and disappears once the holiday event concludes.
Completing select Children's Week activities with your little protégé in tow also helps to fill up your bar in the Traveler's Log.
Exchange the Well-loved Figurine for any of the Children's Week pets or transmog items from vendors near the Orphan Matrons in Dornogal (Jepetto Joybuzz, Stormwind (Brundia Braidhammer), and Orgrimmar (Leial Knitterton).
