Tips for Secret Santa Gift Exchanges and Games!
What is Secret Santa All About and When is Secret Santa?
If you have a large family or work in a big team, a Secret Santa gift exchange is a wonderful way to make sure that everyone gets a Christmas present without each person having to buy Christmas gifts for every other individual in the group. It saves money and it can be a lot of fun too! It's one of those simple, but brilliant ideas and not surprisingly it happens at Christmas time although the organizing should ideally happen at least a few weeks prior to make sure there's time for "Santa Claus" to order and receive online Christmas presents from Australia!
How Does Secret Santa Work?
A few weeks before Christmas, everyone who is participating in the Secret Santa exchange puts their name into a "hat" and each person draws out a name. They only need to worry about kris kringle gift ideas for the person whose name they drew out and everyone ends up with a Secret Santa to and from one other person in the group. Gifts are purchased and wrapped; the tag should only mention the recipient's name and that it's from "from your Secret Santa". When the time comes to exchange gifts, set up a meeting or plan a family party. Each person comes up one at a time to receive their gift.
If you want to get serious about your secret Santa gifts use a secret Santa organizer so participants can make wish lists for the secret Santa gift ideas they would like to receive.
