If you are looking for help with a theme for Purim this year, or if you have a cute idea to share, please post below!

I'll start:
I have two kids - boy and girl. They are still young. Looking for a cute theme specific to either boy+girl or 2 people (vs. a random theme such as "snowmen").
No movie characters.

How old are they? When we had a toddler and a baby we dressed the older one as a butterfly and the younger one as a caterpillar and our theme was The Very Hungry Caterpillar. It was so cute and really easy because the book contains so many options for food.

When I had that age I did A magician and bunny.
My daughter(2 yrs) was the bunny I dressed her in a white shell with a pink felt oval on the tummy a short fluffy white tutu white tights(cuz was still freezing) with short pink socks over it and then a bunny ears headband. I tacked a huge pink fur pompom onto the back of the tutu for the tail! My son(4 yrs) was the magician- top hat, white shirt, silver sequin vest, red lined black cape, black pants and magic stick.
It came out really cute!!

My toddler is going to be a duck and I'm pregnant so I was thinking of somehow doing something with an egg on my stomach. Yes I know it's cheesy as can be but I happen to love that 😁 any ideas? And for shalach manos?

We did that one year and wrote a takeoff of the story Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Instead, I think we called it Loxy Bear and the Three Golds and instead of porridge the food that everyone disagreed about was potato kugel.
