Both
For the Children: This is the achievement that's given once the others are completed, in order words, this is what you're aiming for.
Home Alone: Use your Hearthstone while your orphan is with you.
How to: Summon Orphan > Hearth > Done. You might want to do this in a cycle later on. Read on.
Daily Chores: Complete a daily quest every day for five consecutive days with your orphan out.
How to: **HOTFIXED**
World of Warcraft - English (NA) Forums -> Childrens Week Achievement - Daily Chores
Simply complete 5 dailies when your orphan is out.
School of Hard Knocks: Take your orphan into the battlegrounds and complete the feats listed below.
How to: Another very annoying achievement this can also be a very hard one. Notice how it says, Return a flag in Warsong Gulch? It doesn't state that if we need to, or if we need to be in the vicinity, likewise with the rest, but aside from that, simple.
EDIT: This is now the HARDEST to complete and your 1ST priority!!
Mini-Guide:
Warsong Gulch: When I did this myself, I waited near our own flag, and let the enemy grab it, once they did, some other people and I pounced him. I made sure my orphan was out, and when he was almost dead, pretty much moved in and spam clicked the area I predicted a flag would drop.
3rd Hardest
Arathi Basin: This one's a bit annoying, not sure if you can catch a "new" flag, because I could never get there in time. I personally let a Horde take the flag, and then took it myself. I didn't attack the Horde, and made sure he a. Had an orphan out, b. Knew I was waiting for him.
Things like /wave and /thanks help a great deal. Easiest, but still hard...
Alterac Valley: This one is GAYED! You HAVE to join a fresh AV game, when you do, first thing make sure your orphan is out. When the gates open, head STRAIGHT for the 2nd or the 2 last towers, NEVER head for the first. An important note here, you can only get the credit if you cap an offensive tower, not defensive. - 2nd hardest
Eye of the Storm: This is the worst one, if you have crap latency, then you lose. It's very straightfoward... cap the flag, hand it in, MAKE SURE YOUR ORPHAN IS OUT!! No other tips D: 1st Hardest
Bad Example: Eat the sweets listed below while your orphan is watching.
How to: Lovely reference from Wowhead.
Aw, Isn't It Cute?: Obtain one of the Children's Week reward pets.Here's where and how you can find the foodstuffs:
- Tigule and Foror's Strawberry Ice Cream - sold in zeppelin's Snack-o-Matic, Ironforge (Hallow's End only), Nagrand (A), Nagrand (H), Orgrimmar (Children's Week only), Orgimmar (Hallow's End only), Stormwind (Children's Week only), and Thousand Needles

How to: There will be a quest chain that will be completable, and it will offer one of three new Northrend Pets, apparently they are Wolvar/Oracle pets. I'll finish this section off once it is out on live, this is because quest chains have not been confirmed yet.
Hail To The King, Baby: Defeat King Ymiron in Utgarde Pinnacle with your orphan out.
How to: Before you kill King Ymiron, pull out your orphan. Because it doesn't specify, I'm guessing it can be done on NORMAL mode.
Enjoy your soon-to-be titles! and thanks for reading!
Even thanking me with a reply is enough!
