Christmas Spin Wheel Ideas: Party Games and Secret Santa

Secret Santa Spin Wheel Ideas

Secret Santa is fun until someone has to hand out the names. A spin wheel does it in the open, so nobody can say it was fixed. Ways to set one up:

• Classic Name Draw: Add all participant names and spin to assign gift-givers. Press Remove Winner from List after each pick so nobody is drawn twice.
• Budget Wheel: Can't decide on a spending limit? Add options like "$20", "$30", "$50" and let the wheel choose.
• Gift Theme Wheel: Add categories like "Handmade", "Edible Treats", "Experience Gift" to inspire creativity.
• Reveal Wheel: Use the wheel at your party to reveal who each person's Secret Santa was, one spin at a time.
