I think ours is pretty cute. In short, the little has one end of a string (usually ends up being a ball or two of yarn
) and the big is at the other end, and the little has to meet the big at the end. Here's the part that makes it fun though. We hold it in a park in town that happens to have a fair amount of trees, playground equipment, and other things that string can be wrapped around. The bigs go to the park about a half hour before the littles are to arrive and they wrap the string around the trees and such in a huge maze where the strings are just like a big spider web. When the littles arrive they find their sign with their name on it that has their end of the string. They keep following their string that goes in many different directions and around several objects until the end (which takes anywhere from 5-15 min on average...depending on how tricky your big is
), where there is one last present. With the present their is a card or something like that, and the big reveals her name or a clue that totally gives it away. And while the little is opening her present/reading her card the big always finds a way to sneak up behind her so that when the little turns around she is right their for a big hug!
I think its so cute!
