Ideas to surprise my little?

Hi! So this week is big/little reveal and I'm super excited about my little I was just wondering if anybody had any ideas of fun/anonymous things to do throughout this week to surprise her. I already made a fake e-mail account and started e-mailing her, but I really wanna do something special above and beyond just giving her presents throughout the week. Thanks for any suggestions!

I know you're excited, but a fake email account sounds creepily stalkeriffic to me. There's nothing wrong with the traditional route of leaving little presents for her.

In the meantime, how about decorating her door with handmade posters and streamers? You could also arrange to have sisters take notes to her with hints about who her big might be. That will build up the anticipation.

If you want to go above and beyond as a big sis, spend quality time with your little following the reveal! Have fun.

The e-mail account thing is something a lot of girls in my chapter do, just as a way to anonymously correspond with our littles, I promise nothing creepy haha, just mainly "I'm so excited!" e-mails and stuff. I get how that could sound weird though haha

I've seen people make up fake FB accounts called, Suzie's Big, just to leave messages on their little's pages, so I don't see anything wrong with the whole email thing.

We used to chalk the concrete outside the sorority dorm, decorate cars overnight, bake cookies, make posters, etc. It doesn't have to be all about presents.

Treasure hunt. My secret sister actually did this for me, but you could use it for big/little gifts as well. If the littles go to the sorority house to pick up their gifts, do it in the house...if not, ask for her roommate's help.

Basically what my sister did was put little signs around the different rooms in the house that had a short rhyme and "Clue 1: Laundry Room" and I went to the kitchen to find the next sign. These little signs directed me all around the house until I eventually found my gift - it was in the kitchen and the different cupboards/areas had cold, hot, warm etc depending how close I was getting. It was REALLY cute and I appreciated that she took so much time to do it!!

You can also put little clues as to who you are in with the signs. Like, if your grandbig lives in the house, direct your little to that room, and say "you're close to our family!"

We arrange "date night ins" with the little's boyfriend, best guy friend, or best friend. You tell your little to be in their room at a certain time, and the boyfriend/friend shows up with a movie and popcorn (provided by you of course). It's really fun!

I really cute idea would be making a mix CD full of songs you either love, hate, or have memories with. It gives them little clues about who you are and it's more creative than just posters and little cards.
