Top 6 Christmas websites

 

TOP 6 BEST CHRISTMAS WEBSITES!


1. Norad Santa

NORAD santa IS the original website for tracking Santa’s whereabouts on Christmas eve. Bringing delight to many children as they watch his location and see him hop from town, city and country – but never stopping at their house, as he doesn’t visit until the children are sleeping.  NORAD is the military organisation responsible for the aerospace defence of North America, airing warnings of impending missile attacks as well as tracking St Nick's whereabouts on Christmas eve.

 

2. Northpole

Northpole.com is a delightful website which gives you access into Santa’s secret village which consists of several different houses, full of people ‘contributing’ to the success of Christmas. There’s a countdown to Santa's arrival, games, recipes and a craft section which you can be led around by one of Santa’s lesser known reindeers, Raymond! As far as website design goes this one is a little past its sell by date, however it offers quite a lot of festive features which are likely to keep your family entertained for a few hours.

 

3. Email Santa

This website does exactly what it says on the tin. On registering your name it allows you to complete a contact form style list of check-boxes, Santa replies almost instantaneously. 

 

4. Santa Tracker

My favourite feature of the website is the ‘learning’ section on Christmas traditions around the world. The animated map allows you to click on pins in different countries and see what they traditionally get up to in the festive season.  There’s also an animated direction game, which aims to teach you code in the process. 

 

5. Santa Live

This interesting but somewhat invasive live stream allows you to follow the life of Santa and see him whenever and wherever he is. (Well within limitations – Although I haven’t actually watched him for a full day…) 

 

6. Elf yourself

This has been a firm favourite around the world wide web for a couple of years! All you have to do is upload a snap of your face and 4 others and the website will superimpose your head on to that of a dancing elf. It is quite amusing and I have seen many kids (and adults) giggle over this time and time again, however it is a little bit like, well, you’ve seen it once!  Having said that, this is quite a fun alternative to the traditional Christmas card!
