wheelspinnerSecret Santa name wheel
Add everyone taking part. Each person spins in turn, and the name they land on is who they buy for. Remove each name once it’s drawn. If someone lands on themselves, they simply spin again.
Ways to use the secret santa wheel
- Spin in person at a party so everyone sees it’s fair.
- For a secret draw, let each person spin alone and close the result before passing the screen on.
- Use the reward wheel afterwards to choose who opens their gift first.
Questions
What if someone draws their own name?
Close the result without removing it and spin again. Only remove a name once it’s been given to someone else.
How do I keep the results secret?
Turn off sound, let one person spin at a time, and close the result before passing the device to the next person.
Is this the same as white elephant?
No. In Secret Santa each person buys for one assigned person. In white elephant everyone brings a gift to a shared pile and players take turns opening or stealing. For that, use the white elephant generator to draw the picking order.
