Think about how God wants us to share His truths with others and to plant seeds for Him. Explain how a seed produces another plant which in turn creates many fruits and many more seeds. Slice a tomato, watermelon or another fruit with seed inside and count out some of the seeds with your child. Share how the seed that landed on good soil went on to produce a great harvest. Think of people we could ask to help us understand the Bible. When we do not understand something, we can pray and ask God to help us understand it. Remind your child how God knows we have a lot to learn and that we may not understand everything in the Bible. Show how the disciples did not understand it is meaning so asked Jesus to explain it. Read the second part of the passage where Jesus’ explains the parable. Share that more and more people came to listen to Jesus’ teaching, but many of them did not have the right heart to listen and obey him. Ask them how that makes them feel, apologise and remind them that what they tell you is really important. For example, maybe your child tries to tell you something important when you are busy, and you do not really pay attention. Talk about ways we respond to what people tells us. Speak about how it is important that we listen careful and obey the correct things. Read the parable from your children’s Bible and review the fields you have created as you go along. In this parable, Jesus wanted the people to understand the effects of God’s Word and his teaching on their hearts. Remind your child that a parable is a story Jesus taught to help people understand important truths. Give you child some seeds and ask them “which field would be the best to plant the seeds?” Find some garden weeds and twigs to place in the field.Have your child step on the soil to compress it and make it hard. Fill each container with a layer of soil and then follow the steps in the parable. To do this, you will need four plastic containers or seed trays.
