What Are Milestone Discs and Announcement Plaques?

Milestone discs and announcement plaques are decorative keepsakes typically made from wood, engraved with key messages to mark moments in your baby’s life. These can include age markers like “Two Weeks Old,” phrases such as “First Tooth,” or customizable name and birth details for newborn announcements.

They’re often used as props in baby photography or kept as mementos in scrapbooks and keepsake boxes. With their charming aesthetic and personal value, they’ve become an essential in modern parenting.

When to Gift Milestone and Announcement Plaques

These products are a perfect gift for many occasions:

How many milestone discs should I buy?

It depends on your goals.

If you're aiming to photograph monthly growth, the 12-disc monthly set is ideal. Want to record all baby’s “firsts”? Add the development set. Many parents opt for both to capture a full year of memories.

Little Giggles also offers bundles for better value, combining monthly and event-based milestones.

Can I write on the announcement plaques?

Yes, you can.

Some plaques are designed with blank spaces so you can add your baby’s name, birth date, weight, and time. We recommend using a fine-tip marker or paint pen. If you're feeling creative, you can even add designs or illustrations.

For long-lasting results, make sure to write on a clean, flat surface and let the ink dry thoroughly.

Are these plaques safe for babies?

Absolutely.

Our plaques are made with non-toxic, eco-friendly wood. They’re hand-finished to ensure smooth edges and safe handling. That said, they’re decorative, not toys—so they should always be used under supervision.

At Little Giggles, baby safety is our top priority. Every product is carefully reviewed to ensure it’s both beautiful and safe.

How do I preserve my milestone discs after use?

Store them properly to keep them looking new.

After each use, gently wipe the disc with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid moisture and direct sunlight. Most parents store them in our reusable cotton pouch or in keepsake boxes alongside baby photos and memorabilia.

These discs are meant to last and be passed down, so treat them like the treasures they are.
