Looking for a fun, yet inexpensive, baby-shower or new-grandparent gift? The Baby Edition Countdown Clock, currently priced at $13.95 on Amazon.com, fits the bill.

The countdown clock can be easily set to display birthing due dates and other milestone events. It comes with four template overlays for baby’s due date, baby’s first birthday, baby’s first Christmas, and first day of preschool.

As your child grows and learns to tell time, you can use the countdown clock to mark important future events.

An order form is included for purchasing additional overlay templates for first day of school, summer vacation, chanukah, and braces off.

The clock runs on one AA battery (not included) and weighs a mere 6.4 ounces. Instructions to set countdowns are available online. The countdown clock can be purchased here.
