About this template
Organizing a holiday gift exchange should be fun, not a guessing game. This Secret Santa Google Form template takes the stress out of holiday giving by gathering essential preference details from every participant before the draw takes place.
Designed for workplaces, classrooms, friend groups, and family gatherings, the form collects sizing information (shirt, pants, shoes), favorite foods, snacks, drinks, hobbies, and specific gift likes or dislikes. By gathering this data ahead of time, organizers ensure that every participant receives a thoughtful present they will genuinely love, eliminating awkward or mismatched gifts.
