old an new topic help

[Guest]

Hello everybody I'm thinking ahead to the new year and hoping for some inspiration!

I'm taking over a mixed reception/nursery class in January and have been told hat the the whole school Spring term topic is 'old and new' I'm struggling to think of ideas for this age group apart from old/new toys - Ive also been told the head likes planning to be based on a book....any help appreciated x

Little Bear books have Old Bear character and also think there is a story about a new toy arriving? ("Ruby" maybe?)

Family stories about older people and "new" babies?

Looking at old and new buildings...
