We give our 'littles' clues the week leading up to big/little revelation. For example, I glued a guess who game to a posterboard, and gave her a clue everyday like... Was my Big born out of the state? She read the questions until the only people standing were myself and the girl's other big (we are sharing) Other people left song lyrics on posterboard outside the girls rooms. Generally, the clues are not really actual clues, just something fun!

I was Assistant Phi Director last year. Unfortunately I was not elected into the Phi Director position this year; however, I have an idea that I think is really cool. You give each Phi a piece of wrapping paper and then their big sisters are hiding in a large box wrapped in that same wrapping paper. The Phi's go and find the paper that matches and they meet up with their Big Sis. I thought the idea was cute! I hope you like it and maybe will be able to use it!

I'm not the Phi Director at our school- but we have a really good ideas of revelation 1. We have candles, and the littles stand in a circle facing outwards. All the sisters go around the circle singing a song (a fun phi mu one, of course!) When the song is done, the bigs blow out the candles of their littles. 2. We use a lot of balloons and have the littles names attached to the ends of them...inside one of the balloons is their big's names...they pop each of their balloons untill they find the one with their bigs name in it. ALSO, we used to (back in the day) take yarn and make a big spider web so each of the sisters is holding a peice...and the little takes the end of the string that leads them to their big and has to untangle the spider web to get to them (people who arn't bigs hold each others string)...it's all fun getting to meet your big for the first time! =)
