Putting my theme together

The last few years, without that much effort I was able to pull off quite cute themes and got lots of compliments on my mm. This year I am exhausted and way stressed out. So need some help putting it together please.

My kids (ages 5 & 3) have decided they want to wear a wetsuit. Well, my DS has one as part of his dress-up and constantly constantly wears it (has some sensory issues and I think he likes the tightness if it). So if they will wear wetsuits and I guess maybe goggles, what do I call them divers?

Also re the mm, when the wetsuit idea came up my dh said, and what you're going to give everyone sushi? I immediately loved the idea because I am prepared I pay to have small sushi plates made because then I don't have any work. Was thinking of maybe somehow attaching a nice water bottle.

So, firstly what do you ladies think of the idea? I keep going back and forth on it.

What is the best way of attaching the water bottle?

Anyone have suggestions for a two liner to tie it all together?

Thanks all, I just don't have the energy for it this year.

Ask your LOR, but I don't think that water counts as a min for MM.

the jelly fish idea is really cute and takes care of the other 'min'

It's also possible that two different types of sushi (1 tuna & 1 salmon or 1 raw fish & 1 cooked, 1 fish & 1 veggie, etc) would be the 2 minim and even the water would not be neccesary.

Op here, thanks all for the responses.
I like the jelly fish idea a lot, thanks.
I believe the Halacha is one bracha for two people. Be that as it may, I will have more than one bracha anyway because I thought I would do cooked fish and veg sushi.

So I'm wondering do I do the same thing for the teachers?
What will I do for the kids friends?

And on a completely different topic, how do you handle going to all the teachers and friends? How many friends do your children give to?

Thanks again.
