"He put before them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field; it is the smallest of seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and rest in its branches." -Matthew 13:31-32
Jesus' parables are one of the ways Jesus trains his disciples. The parables, like the sermon on the mount, have always been crucial for the church to imagine the kind of community it is called to be. We discover again and again that Jesus' parables significance points to everyday life. The parables are meant to be lived.
The original audience may have been perplexed by this story. They would have known that no-one would intentionally plant a mustard shrub. In fact, the Jewish Mishnah forbade the growing of mustard seeds in the garden because they were 'useless annoying weeds'. In the Hebrew Scriptures the "birds of the air" can be a reference to Gentiles/Non-Jews, the foreigner. This parable suggests that the kingdom of heaven is available to everyone. Even those who may be considered outsiders or not "Worthy". Jesus is calling us to see the significance in the insignificant. The parables of the kingdom of heaven make clear that the kingdom of heaven is not "up there". Through the parables Jesus is teaching us to "be for the world the material reality of the kingdom of heaven brought down to earth." As Jesus is himself the parable of the father so the church is meant to be the parable of Christ. A people in space and time welcoming the outcast, the foreigner, and the stranger. These kind of communities will look like unwanted weeds to the world, or even to other christians. However, this may be exactly the church Jesus is asking us to embody.

I like the scrubby side more then the soft side, fits great in the hand, washing doesn’t ruin the durability or feel and the pack is a great deal!

A bit small!
Format: Board book, Format: Board book
Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? / Oso polar, oso polar, ¿qué es ese ruido? is such a great classic! My students absolutely love the repetitive, rhythmic text—it keeps them engaged and encourages participation, especially during read-alouds.
I also love that it’s bilingual, which supports my students in building vocabulary and making connections in both English and Spanish. It’s perfect for a diverse classroom and helps all learners feel included.
The only downside is that the book is a bit smaller than expected, but it’s still a wonderful addition to our classroom library. Overall, a must-have for early childhood classrooms!

Great bilingual children's board book
Format: Board book
Our kiddo loves this series of books. We appreciate that they are bilingual, with both English and Spanish on each page. My partner can read the same book one way, while I read it another. All the while, our kiddo can follow along and choose the names and languages they are most comfortable with.
