Los versos ingeniosos y pegadizos de este librito dan a los niños algunos ejemplos para amar a sus vecinos y el vecindario donde viven.

¡Bienvenido! (Welcome)

Una de las mejores maneras en que los niños aprenden a tratar a otros es viendo cómo se tratan en su familia. Cuando los padres y adultos son amables y hospitalarios con los visitantes, los niños aprenden a serlo. El simple hecho de sentarse junto a alguien nuevo es una manera de dar la bienvenida. Jesús también nos da la bienvenida, invitándonos a pasar tiempo con Él y a compartirlo con otros, y nuestro hogar es un lugar excelente para hacerlo. Cuando los niños invitan a sus amigos están siendo hospitalarios, así como Jesús lo es con nosotros. Y la bondad que comparten refleja la generosidad de Dios que quiere que todos estemos en casa con Él.
