Free tools for Christmas Day

The tools

Santa Gift Label MakerPrint a North Pole mail label for every present. Four designs, a naughty-or-nice verdict, and a QR code that opens either the Santa Tracker or a personal Santa message that greets the child by name. Sized for a standard 4×6 print. Advent Calendar MakerFill 12, 24 or 25 doors with your own messages and photos, then share one link. Each door only opens on its own real day, and the content behind a locked door is never sent to anyone’s browser. Secret Santa / Gift ExchangeSecret Santa for family, friends or work. Share a join link, let people sign up with a wishlist, and draw names whenever you’re ready. Each person gets a private link that shows only their own match. Santa TrackerOn Christmas Eve, follow Santa’s simulated journey around the world, timezone by timezone, with the kids. Kids Gift Label MakerA printable personalised gift label for a child: enter a name, who it’s from and an optional message, then print. Countdown Poster MakerMake a poster counting down to a date that matters, such as Christmas Day. Star Map Poster MakerA gift with meaning: the night sky exactly as it looked from a place and date you choose, such as a first Christmas together or the night a child was born. Photo Mosaic MakerTurn a stack of family photos into one big picture. A good present for grandparents. Slideshow MakerTurn your photos and a song into a video slideshow with a smooth pan-and-zoom effect, to send to family far away.

Plan Christmas in four steps

  1. Late November: build the advent calendar so it’s ready for 1 December, then share its link. Doors unlock by real calendar date (UTC), so everyone sees the same ones open at the same time.
  2. Early December: start the Secret Santa and share the join link. You draw names whenever you’re ready, but the draw locks the list, so wait until everyone who should be in has joined. You can add an optional wishlist question so each person says what they’d like.
  3. Mid December: make and print the gift labels. They’re sized for a standard 4×6 print, which most home printers and photo printing services handle directly. Only the preview shows what will print, so download after your final edits.
  4. Christmas Eve: open the Santa Tracker with the children and watch the journey move around the world.

Frequently asked questions

Are the Christmas tools free?

Yes. They’re free to use, and the site is paid for by ads. The Secret Santa and advent calendar work through share links, so nobody has to make an account.

Does the Santa gift label maker send my child’s name anywhere?

You don’t need an account, and nothing is stored on a server. If you choose the personal-message QR code, the name and verdict are built into the code’s link, so whoever scans it sees a Santa message using exactly that name and verdict.

How many people do I need for Secret Santa?

At least 3. With only one or two people there is no meaningful way to keep a gift exchange secret.

Can people peek at the advent calendar doors in advance?

No. A locked door’s message and image are never sent to the browser at all, so there’s nothing to find even by looking at the page’s network requests.

What size do the gift labels print at?

A standard 4×6 print, the size most home printers and photo printing services handle directly.

How is the Santa Tracker different from the New Year tracker?

The Santa Tracker is a simulated journey based on real timezones. The New Year’s Tracker is genuinely live, following midnight as it really arrives in each timezone.
