Adopt Me’s 2025 Winter Event: Every Pet, Minigame, and Gingerbread Sink

The 2025 Winter Event in Adopt Me! is a month-long Christmas update built around Gingerbread grinding, a stacked Advent Calendar, and four waves of pets and items. It runs from December 5, 2025, to January 5, 2026, with Mayor Amanda, Billy, and Speedy walking you through the basics when you first load in.

Gingerbread is the main event currency, joined by Robux for a handful of premium items. The entire update is structured around a weekly rollout, an island-wide Christmas makeover, and a surprisingly deep “Christmas Spirit” house quest that quietly becomes one of the biggest grinds in the event.


Event structure and currencies

The Winter Event follows a four-week cadence:

  • Week 1: Core winter map, Winter Shop, Ice Skating, and Choo Choo Train needs, Bah Humbug minigame, Pudding House quest, and the first pet wave.
  • Week 2: Snowball Pug taming, Yarn Beanie food, Santa Copter, and a second pet wave, including the Maine Coon and Christmas Spirit.
  • Week 3: Starry Bounce minigame and the Aberdeen Angus Box, plus Angus pets, Cozy Mistletroll, and Frost Phoenix.
  • Week 4: New Year Disco! pet need, final pet wave with Japanese Snow Fairy, Samoyed, and Bunny Swirl, plus NYE cosmetics.

There are two currencies in play:

  • Gingerbread earned from activities like Ice Skating, Bah Humbug, the Choo Choo Train, daily tasks, and some rewards.
  • Robux used for the Arctic Dusk Dragon (1,000 Robux), Frost Phoenix (500 Robux), Bunny Swirl (99 Robux), and Frosty Glow Mega Neon Paint (49 Robux).

Billy offers a daily exchange that quietly becomes one of the strongest Gingerbread boosters: you can trade 550 bucks for 5,000 Gingerbread by talking to him three times per real-world day.

Advent Calendar and Mrs. Whiskerpips

The Advent Calendar runs from day 1 to day 25 and mixes furniture, toys, potions, currency, and cosmetics. It’s worth logging in daily, but two things matter most:

  • Day 25: grants Mrs. Whiskerpips, an ultra-rare pet.
  • Stocked Santa Sleigh: an ultra-rare vehicle unlocked by opening 20 doors in total, not necessarily consecutively.

Other notable days include repeated 3,000 Gingerbread drops (days 6, 12, 16, 18, 20), the Santa’s Helper Stroller on day 14, and themed pet wear like the Nutcracker Hat and Snowstorm Hat. If you care about trading, the sleigh and Mrs. Whiskerpips are the calendar’s long-term value plays, while the flat Gingerbread drops are there to smooth out event progression.


Christmas Spirit Tasks and the Christmas Pudding House

The Christmas Pudding House quest is the backbone of the “Christmas Spirit” system and one of the longest grinds in the update. Progression is tied entirely to completing standard pet needs, which are tracked on the Task Board and on a physical Spirit Meter outside your Pudding House.

Total pet needs completed Reward / change
15 Unlocks the Christmas Pudding House (the house itself).
45 White icing added to windows and door.
105 Candy cane decorations across the front.
165 Garlands, lights, red bows, plus lit bush and chimney bow.
225 Light strands wrapping the house and base greenery.
300 Snow-covered decorated trees on both sides of the house.
375 Snowman on one side, red sleigh on the other.
450 Blue aura on top of the house and the Tree Sasquatch pet (rare, free).

Once you hit 450 needs and collect the Tree Sasquatch, the questline loops and can be repeated. For most players, though, unlocking the house at 15 needs is the priority, with the decorations and Tree Sasquatch as longer-term projects.

Gingerbread farming activities

Ice Skating

The frozen lake is back with a more tightly structured loop. Every in-game day, 160 Gingerbread tokens spawn on the ice, each worth 12 Gingerbread. Collecting them all yields 1,920 Gingerbread per full lap.

Penguins move across the ice and slow you if you bump them. They’re mostly a tempo tax, but they matter if you’re trying to squeeze in several runs per play session. Speedy the Penguin offers timed races; your first completion awards 500 Gingerbread.

Pets can also pick up an “Ice Skating” ailment. Completing it by skating on the lake grants a small bonus of 15 Gingerbread and 100 bucks, adding another reason to keep a pet out while you farm the track.


Choo Choo Train

A train now circles Adoption Island and ties directly into both Gingerbread and pet needs.

  • Pets can gain a “Choo Choo Train!” ailment, which you clear by riding in a train car for a while. Completing this gives 15 Gingerbread and 100 bucks.
  • Every 10 minutes, the train chimney starts spewing Gingerbread. While this happens, anyone sitting in the cars passively earns 50 Gingerbread every few seconds, up to 1,000 Gingerbread per burst.

If you’re multitasking or AFK for short stretches, the train is one of the better passive earn options in the event.

Bah Humbug minigame

Bah Humbug is a 2D platformer-style combat minigame that runs from a queue inside the Christmas tree trunk behind the Nursery. You and other players are dropped into a vertical arena filled with Humbugs — bee-like enemies with three hearts of health apiece — and equipped with a baseball bat.

The structure is simple: three waves, each 60 seconds long.

  • Each hit removes one heart from a Humbug.
  • Purple mushrooms bounce you upwards to reach higher platforms.
  • Hitting a Humbug pops you slightly into the air, which can be chained to stay airborne and rack up combos.

The Gingerbread payout scales on three things: total damage dealt, number of Humbugs defeated, and how many hits you land without touching the ground. A strong run caps out at 5,000 Gingerbread, making Bah Humbug one of the highest single-session earners if you can stay mobile and focus on combo chains rather than just clearing stragglers.


Snowball Pug taming

Snowball Pug taming opens in week two behind the Pizza Shop. Every two in-game days, a batch of Snowball Pugs appears in the taming area and stays until nightfall.

Taming uses the Yarn Beanie food item:

  • Each spawn window allows one Yarn Beanie throw per player.
  • You play a short skill check where a Yarn Beanie slides left and right under a central Snowball Pug head marker.
  • Landing the beanie on the head grants 10% taming progress; missing still gives 5% progress.

Hitting 100% taming progress awards a Snowball Pug (ultra-rare pet) and a matching Yarn Beanie pet accessory. Yarn Beanies themselves are free from daily tasks and minigame rewards, or purchasable in a bundle of 10 for 250 Gingerbread.

Starry Bounce

Starry Bounce arrives in week three near Santa’s Workshop. It’s less about combat and more about movement and coordination.

Stars spawn in three tiers:

  • Silver stars start on the ground.
  • Purple stars float higher.
  • Gold stars are the final state; touching one collects it.

Every time a player touches a star, it upgrades one tier (silver to purple, purple to gold). When a gold star is collected, it flies to the central tree as a decoration, giving you a visual sense of team progress. Pets you bring into Starry Bounce earn bonus XP for each star you help catch, which makes this minigame one of the better passive leveling tools for anyone grinding neons or mega neons during the event.


New Year Disco! ailment

From week four, pets can receive a “New Year Disco!” ailment that sends you to the Disco Dome near Green Groceries. Spending the required time inside clears the need and grants 20 Gingerbread and 100 bucks.

There’s no complex gameplay here — it exists mainly to pull players toward the New Year content and give a small late-event currency top-up.

Houses, furniture, stickers, and the AI-art controversy

Christmas Pudding House is the only house introduced, and it’s free through the Christmas Spirit quest when you hit 15 pet needs. Beyond that, the event adds several furniture pieces:

  • Hot Cocoa Table – 4,500 Gingerbread (week 1)
  • Aurora Window – 2,100 Gingerbread (week 2)

  • Brick Fireplace – 3,500 Gingerbread (week 4)

One furniture item, the Humbug Attack Poster (4,000 Gingerbread, week 1), was removed from the Winter Shop on December 6 over concerns that its artwork was generated by AI. It was later deleted from all houses and inventories, with players refunded their Gingerbread.

On the cosmetic side, there’s a Winter 2025 Sticker Pack for 1,000 Gingerbread and a long list of individual stickers themed around the event’s pets and decor, from Fairy Lights and Festive Wreath stickers up to a legendary Arctic Dusk Dragon Sticker.
