Editor's Review
NORAD Tracks Santa is the most magical app of the holiday season! Every Christmas Eve, millions of children (and adults!) around the world eagerly await Santa Claus's journey. This app, developed by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), allows you to track Santa's sleigh in real-time as he delivers presents across the globe.
The tradition dates back to 1955 when a misprinted phone number in a newspaper ad led kids to call NORAD instead of Santa's workshop. The kind-hearted NORAD staff played along, and thus, a beloved holiday tradition was born. Today, the NORAD Tracks Santa app brings this enchanting experience to your fingertips.
The app features a beautifully designed interactive map that shows Santa's current location, his next stops, and even fun facts about the cities he visits. You can also watch videos, play games, and learn about NORAD's mission.
Perfect for families, this app is a wonderful way to build holiday excitement and create lasting memories. Whether you're a kid or just young at heart, tracking Santa with NORAD is a festive must-do!
