Children’s Week!

This is, personally speakin’, the first time ah’v bin’ asked tae take a wee wean oot tae see the sites and teach them aboot what the Alliance stands fer. Ach it brought a tear tae mah eye, so it did, tae see yon we lassie so brave and wantin’ tae grow up ‘just like me’.

One of my favourite times of the year in WoW - pet Children’s Week! I logged into the BA chatroom yesterday evening and was informed it had started - I had thought it would be another month until the event, so I was pleasantly surprised (learn to read calenders, Aurik-nub!). I giggled gleefully - “I’m on backup for the raid tonight, time to get all of my new alliance characters a pet or two!”. Of course, sod’s law kicked in and five minutes later “Ehm Aurik, we’re short a rogue, get ready for incoming summon”. Bugger. Ah well, it was a good night anyway (more about that later!).

Last year I managed to get myself Whiskers and Peanut for Mharai, and Mr. Wiggles for my young Orc rogue. This year I have a few characters who need petified up - though I might spread getting them over a few days so as not to out-holiday-quest myself.

I’ll also need to update my list!

    Since they added draenei and blood elf children to the Outlands last year, I’m hoping they’ll add dwarven and tauren children for Northrend’s version of children’s week (if they end the event out there as well!) — finger crossed, pwease pwease pwease!

    I’d really love to see a children’s week where everyone got the chance to take children of their own race out into the world - or at least give people the choice. I’d absolutely love to give a tour to a young Tauren of Dwarf, Night Elf, Troll, or Gnome! Variety is a wonderful thing.

    Makes me want to draw a collection of young-Azerothian / Outlandians now :)

    Softi: I can always give you a hand if you want to get your new rogue / hunter one!

    I got my Peanut yesterday. He could almost pass for a mount, considering the size if you compare it to me.

    Doing this kinds of quests really make me appreciate being a mage. Just teleporting myself around all over the world…
