Have you ever heard of the Secret Santa? This tradition is widespread at this time of the year. Let’s see how it works and 5 ideas for tech gifts.
What is Secret Santa? This cute little tradition emerges again every year as Christmas approaches and is becoming ever so widespread among European and North American households. Secret Santa is based on the idea of secretly sending each other Christmas gifts to a group of friends or family.
For example, a group of friends might decide to create a Secret Santa group this year. The way it works is that the participants write their names on a ticket, fold it, and place it into a bucket. After they’re mixed, each player draws one ticket and reads it without revealing the name. Now, each player will buy a Christmas present for the person they drew out of the bucket.
This group of friends will also set up a date (it doesn’t have to be precisely on Christmas) to open up all the presents. Only then will the player know who they received the gift from.
Over the years, Secret Santa has become increasingly more popular and is now one of the most followed Christmas traditions in the West. It’s not as popular as setting up a Christmas tree, but it’s getting up there. There are many sites and apps that arrange the Secret Santa group online, making it possible for people from different countries to play together.
So let’s now see 5 beautiful tech gifts for Secret Santa 2023.
