Spider-Man
Red, blue and webs on every surface. Masks optional, mostly.
Best for ages 3 to 9
Spider-Man is three colours and one pattern, which makes it one of the simplest themes to pull together well. Red and blue for everything, black for contrast, and web print wherever it fits.
Stretchy spider web from the Halloween aisle turns any doorway into the city at night, and a web of string across a hallway makes an obstacle course the guests will run twenty times. Set out masks at the door and every photo afterwards is a superhero team shot.
