Challe's home for little tykes has long been one of my favorite locations in Outlands. Cute babies, hidden secrets, an intimation of something horrible happening -- what's not to love? I did feel sort of bad for the tiny Horde babies, left in their bassinets or spinning forever on the merry-go-round until they grew up enough to either play with the explosives in the sandbox, get stuck in the cage behind the orphanage, or realize that there are like ten Horde babies and one night elf and begin a very short baby war.
So I was happy today to discover that Blizzard has secretly put in some changes at the mountain orphanage. For one, Challe (a blue-haired female troll) is back from wherever she was, and is actually watching her charges -- she even admonished me to be quiet or risk waking them up. They also added in some toddlers -- a human boy named Chaddo and a blood elf girl named Sa'rah chase each other around while an orc girl hides in the massive dinosaur skeleton in the sandbox.
I always love to see Blizzard adding in little Easter Eggs for explorers like this, although I still wonder why there's bloodstains and skeletons all around the area. What do you think Challe's up to? Are those tauren babies becoming hunter pet food?

The Orphanage in Shattrath has baby Gnomes, Humans, and Dwarves. They should add a few of those to this orphanage.
The location? I know it's somewhere in Nagrand, the terrain makes it obvious. The only real place it could be is somewhere alone the northern edge. But I'm not sure on the exact location.

It's close to the elemental farm Pletau. A bit west of it.

As a father myself of little ones, I can't help but get a little choked up to see the babies in their cribs and playing the sand box.

"or realize that there are like ten Horde babies and one night elf and begin a very short baby war."
When I read that I got this wonderful mental image of those cute baby Tauren flinging pureed peas at the night elf baby.
