    I am just curious how many of you give a teaser type decoration or just a countdown clock for kids reminding them the big day is approaching. Next Sunday I will be putting out my window countdown clock I added to my Gemmy Skeleton as a teaser. I just finished the sign and all I do is replace the number each morning while having my java

    I live on a corner lot directly on a walking route for Elementary, Junior and High School so its a kick to see them observe a sneak peak. I would love to see pics or hear about any others teasing the TOTs.

    I dont have an outside countdown clock, just an inside one But I do place a JOL in the widow and light him up to let the neighbors know its coming soon!

    We have a pumpkin countdown clock we got a few years ago from Michael's. We've had it out since it hit the 99 days away mark. We have a statue of a black cat right next to it, a lot of dogs going by seem to get a kick out of the cat, they think he's real.

    Tish do you have a picture of the cat and clock? I have always wanted the electric countdown but my budget always stands in the way.

    I like the idea of a count down but I doubt I would be dedicacted enough to remember to change it every day...
