Big/Little Reveal Ideas

[SWTXBelle]

My favorite was when each big picked a different color of yarn - and made a real maze of yarn (think starting with the yarn in one place, then wrapped around door knobs, over and under the OTHER pieces of yarn, around furniture, etc.) Each little had to follow her yarn through the house to the end - where the bigs had the yarn end up at a bag filled with goodies and a card with the name of the big! You could do it all in one room, if need be. The whole scene was a sort of crazed Twister with the pledges going over and under each other and all the stuff in the room.

We did that. It was wonderful.

I'm told it was stopped because it could be considered hazing. I disagree strongly with that assessment.

I also heard that with an 8-week pledge period, it's hard to get to know your little well enough to provide appropriate clue gifts or goodies.

It's still one of my favorite memories from collegiate days.
