Tracking Santa

Here is a fun web-site for the child in all of us-- Not school related, but certainly a series of fun activities-- especially for those of you with small children as we lead up to Christmas.

NORAD is the bi-national (U.S.-Canadian) military organization responsible for the aerospace and maritime defense of the United States and Canada. Simply said, the men and women of NORAD watch the skies.

NORAD Tracks Santa is an annual Christmas-themed entertainment program produced under the auspices of NORAD. Every year on Christmas Eve, "NORAD Tracks Santa" purports to follow Santa Claus as he leaves the North Pole and delivers presents to children around the world.

The program began on December 1 with a "Countdown Village" website. This portion of the site has a series of interactive pages for children regarding Santa and his village and workshops.

Even a big kid like me can enjoy visiting Santa as he makes preparation for the "Big Day". On Christmas Eve, you can even track Santa using Google Earth.
Finally, the site is multilingual--ENJOY!
