NORAD Tracks Santa 2008

I continue to be amazed at what thought and creativity has gone into the creation of this site!
If you are not familiar with it, NORAD aids children (and adults!) in following Santa on his yearly sleigh ride around the world. Through use of satellites, Santa Cams, fighter jets, and other technology (and help from Google Earth), you can follow along with him.
The site also has an area called Kid’s Countdown, full of winter-related activities (ambiguous enough for kids who don’t celebrate the holiday of Christmas).
