Theme for the new year ?

[Ruthierhyme]

What theme or topic are you planning for the New year ?

we are doing aminals, from mini beasts through small, medium and large

right up to easter!

should be fun

i am planning to do a 'weather' topic. the 'minded' children have been discussing about the weather quite alot! doing 'weather' until 1/2 term, then planning to do a 'nursery rhymes' topic. Anyone got any ideas on 'weather' topic i would be grateful!

we are going to be doing "winter vegetables"

Thought I'd do 'winter' in January cos we can carry on themes from Celebrations this month.... like making snowflakes, which is always great fun and gets a bit swamped by Christmassy stuff in December

don't do topics, plan around children, look at what they are doing and introduce things to extend them and interest them, as they are all into tents at moment will do something on this, caves, enclosed spaces , in and out, through for a while and move on from there.

I'm doing People who help us for the next 6 weeks then a week off for half term then were going to do food and drink :)

We are covering toys for the first six weeks back. Talking about what they got for Christmas, favourite toys, toys through the ages, toys from different countries, special toys, puppets, teddies (+indoor picnic) and much much more!!!!!

Inspirational ideas welcome!!

we have sort of got a loose theme on winter but this could change depending where the children want it to go. i also like snow and frost etc
