DD has her heart set on doing a family theme this year. It needs to be a theme with boy-friendly costumes, such as a peddler for older DS and a musician for younger DS.(These are possible costumes that both DS's have mentioned they'd like to be recently, although they may have changed their minds since LOL

You can do things that are gender neutral- musicians, chefs, sailors, farmers etc
Pilot- boy and stewardesses for the girls
animal could work for either
The mishpacha magazine had the idea of beekeeper and bees
candyland- the kids can each be diff candies
Good luck!

Fiddler on the Roof?

Oh, what about that song...a tinker, a tailor, a soldier, a sailor, a rich man, a poor man, a beggar man, a thief, a doctor, a lawyer, an Indian chief.

Doctors & nurses
All types of different clowns- adorable!

Once saw cute monopoly theme
Die, police, prisoner, don't remember the other member.

Circus theme ringmaster, clown, animals.

For your peddler/musician can it be from olden times with daughter a colonial/country woman.
What about a wedding theme? Musician, kallah, choson, shnorers
