Keeping Time: Counting Down the Days
Help Mr. and Mrs. Claus keep track of exactly how much time is left before the big night! Counting Down the Days is a functional and heartwarming figurine that features the iconic couple holding a large, green "Merry Christmas" calendar. By moving the attached candy cane from pocket to pocket, you can count down the days until December 25th, making it a wonderful interactive tradition for the whole family.
Part of the Possible Dreams collection by Department 56, this piece was introduced in January 2026. It features the line's famous "Clothtique" finish, using stiffened fabric and mixed media to create a realistic, high-quality look that has made it the #1 Santa brand among collectors.
