StarMap👶New baby gift: the sky of the day they arrived
A birth is one of the few moments in life where we know the exact minute. It is written on a certificate, in a text message, in somebody’s memory. That precision makes this the most accurate — and the most beautiful — date to turn into a map.

Why it works as a gift
The time is on record, so the map is exact down to the minute.
It looks right in a nursery and it grows with the child.
For grandparents it is usually the gift that gets them.
Watch your map come together
It opens as "The Night You Arrived" in the Celestial style. Change the date, the place and the words, and see the whole map before you pay.
Which date should I pick?
The time on the birth certificate, and the city where the baby was born, not where the family lives now. A detail almost nobody thinks about: if the birth was at dawn, the sky is completely different from the night before — and that difference is what makes the map theirs and nobody else’s.
And the time?
Use the exact time of birth. Here precision does change what you see: the Moon moves half a degree every hour.
