What is the difference between
this.Loaded += new RoutedEventHandler(MainWindow_Loaded);
and
childWindow.MyEvent += new EventHandler(childWindow_MyEvent);

A routed event is an event registered with the WPF event system, backed by an instance of the RoutedEvent class, and processed by the WPF event system. The RoutedEvent instance, obtained from registration, is typically stored as a public static readonly member of the class that registered it.
Routed commands give you three main things on top of normal event handling: Routed command source elements (invokers) can be decoupled from command targets (handlers)—they do not need direct references to one another, as they would if they were linked by an event handler.
RoutedEventArgs(RoutedEvent) Initializes a new instance of the RoutedEventArgs class, using the supplied routed event identifier. RoutedEventArgs(RoutedEvent, Object)
In short, RoutedEvents are routed. They can bubble up or drill down the visual tree until they hit a handler.
Standard events are just plain direct subscription.
