Now that Thanksgiving is complete and the holidays are officially upon us, Google has unveiled a new and expanded Santa's Village for 2016. The dedicated website is part of the company's annual Santa Tracker app promotion. This year, visitors will have plenty to do including learn about various charitable organizations while coloring in digital ornaments, play games, discover holiday traditions from around the world -- even learn a bit of basic coding. More features will unlock daily as we get closer to Christmas.

As the countdown to Xmas 2015 begins, Google has delighted the developer community with a special Christmas goodie. Built on the latest Web platform APIs, Google’s Santa Tracker project has been designated as open source by the search engine behemoth.
