Why use a Christmas wheel

Twelve festive activities are already on the wheel, so a slow December evening turns into a plan in one spin. Use it as an advent wheel too: spin once a day and hide each activity once it is done.

  • Pick a festive activity for the evening

    Families can spin after dinner and do whatever it lands on, from baking cookies to looking at the lights.

  • Use it as a daily advent activity wheel

    Spin once a day in December and hide each winner, so every day brings a different activity.

  • Count down to winter break in class

    Teachers can spin a festive activity for the last days before break, like making cards or reading a story.

  • Draw names for a gift exchange

    Make your own copy with everyone’s names and turn on auto-hide, so each person is drawn once.

This wheel wears the Jingle Wheels theme: christmas only: candy canes, fairy lights and snow. Your own copy keeps it, or pick another wheel theme.

Can I change the entries on this wheel?

Yes. Click “Pick your activities” to save your own copy. You can then add, remove or rename entries, change the theme and spin settings, and share or embed your wheel.

Is it free?
