Do you like receiving animated Christmas cards or e-cards? I found a site that takes it one step further.

Not only is the e-card a greeting card, but it’s also an interactive game. That’s right, cards with Christmas online games in them.

The post that I just linked to discusses some of the most popular free Christmas greeting cards with Christmas related online games embedded right into the cards. One of my favorites on the list is the Greet Santa Game. It’s fast paced and you have to try to grab Christmas gifts from Santa, Frosty and Rudolph. You need to collect 20 gifts to move on to the next level of the game. It’s fun. Check it out.

You can send these cards to your friends, family and co-workers and even challenge them in a competition to see who gets the higher score or reaches the highest level in the game. Maybe you can play for a prize? or a dinner out?
