* ElementalMotifs: The Bettermans represent water, in contrast to the Croods and their experience with fire. The family wears aqua blue, their residence contains a cave of geysers, Hope gets the Thunder Sister title of Bog Water, and Phil used water to create his farm and treehouse [[spoiler: which he stole from the Punch Monkeys]].
* {{Foil}}: The Bettermans act as this towards the Croods with their civilized and refined ways.
* WeakButSkilled: They can build and arrange things great to get round danger and obstacles, but in terms of direct combat aren't too helpful. [[spoiler: Phil is this more than his wife and daughter, though.]]
