Thanks to a collaborative effort between Google Earth and NORAD, you can now track Santa Claus online at noradsanta.org!
As Santa Claus brings gifts to houses all around the world, you can be updated of his position. The website is updated every five minutes. There is even an option for a download that will allow you to watch Santa Claus move around the globe in 3D animation.
If you have young children who are getting excited about Santa coming down the chimney, this is a great website to show exactly what it takes for everyone on earth to get Christmas presents. Once section of the website, called Kids Countdown, you can check out what is happening on the North Pole and play fun games.
On the website is a phone number to talk to a NORAD Santa Tracker. There is a toll-free number for the United States and another number for the rest of the world. There is also a way where you can email Santa Claus directly and have either him or one of the Santa helpers answer any questions.
