Big/Little Sis Clues

[pbpangel]

Does anyone have any cute Little sister clues that they've done in the past?

I wish I could help out more. Our chapter does our revealing by having the Lil read part of a poem and then the Big finishes it. If you're interested in something like that I can give you our poem. It's been passed down for generations!

Well...we have revealing week. Each day the little sis goes and picks up a gift that her Big has left her at the house. First day is flowers. Second day is baked goods. Third day is Pi Phi things (shirts, frames, key chains, shot glasses, towels, sandals, stickers, etc). Then the fourth is revealing night. The littles meet at the house and have an outfit or a mask or something laid out for them. For example, my family is the Barbie family and we have Barbie crowns and fairy wands. So downstairs we have the little's stuff out and upstairs the Bigs are wearing the same thing. Then he Bigs, one at a time, read a poem or letter to their little while she is hidden upstairs and the little and her pledge class are listening below. The poems can be funny or serious, mine was humorous. Then at the end of the reading, the Big comes down the stairs and the little in matching garb realizes that that is her Big and everyone goes "awww" or screams or laughs at the outrageous outfits! It's a fun night. Then we take tons of pictures with the photo service guy we get and go out for a sisterhood.

We have little sis/big sis week at our chapter. The big sis leaves little gifts and notes each day on the little's door with "clues" about who the big is. One of my Beta Buddies was my little sis, and I love making elaborate signs and things, so my friends made me leave her lame tiny little signs so she wouldn't think it was me... it was great, she was completely fooled and on big sis night I gave her a huge beautiful sign to make up for all the crummy ones
We then have our revealing on Big sis night. The VP Social usually tells the pledges that they are having dinner with AAC, and then when they show up there are all of the actives, and the seniors come in wearing crazy function wear, and they make up silly poems about each big and little pair. We then usually go out to dinner with our entire Pi Phi family, and we give our littles presents -- usually a picture frame, flowers, a family tree, and a "family" gift -- sometimes something silly (my family had these horrible silk flowers that were passed on from year to year) and something serious (like a pin box).
Bigs and littles were a huge deal when I pledged in '93 because our pledgeship was 12 weeks long and you spent a ton of time with your big. I'm still great friends with mine!
