Google's Santa Tracker counts down to Christmas

As it does every year, Google has just launched its Santa Tracker in the run-up to Christmas. Despite the name, this is about much more than watching Santa make his journey around the globe -- there's a bunch of fun and games to be enjoyed too.

As well as the online version of Santa Tracker, there's also an Android app, and even an app for Android Wear smartwatches. As we make our way through December, the Santa Tracker serves as an advent calendar, with a new treat revealed each day.

Kicking things off today, you can enjoy a game of Present Bounce and more games will appear over the coming days. There are also loads of interactive elements to explore on the site and app -- hopefully enough to keep even the most impatient Christmas-lover entertained until the big day!

You can check out the Santa Tracker on the web or download the Android app from Google Play.
