Have You Filled a Bucket Today? - A Guide to Daily Happiness for Kids

 HOW FULL IS YOUR BUCKET? For Kids
We all carry an invisible bucket that contains our feelings. When our bucket is full, we feel great. When our bucket is empty, we feel sad. A bucket filler is someone who says or does nice things for other peole. By doing this, they are filling other people's buckets and filling their own bucket at the same time.
On the other hand, a bucket dipper says or does things to cause other people to feel bad. A bucket dipper empties their bucket when they say and do mean things.
In my classroom, each student has a bucket which they design. Everyone is encouraged to fill the buckets by writing kind words and compliments to each other. At the end of the week, we empty the buckets and read the nice things our friends left for us when they filled our buckets. The buckets are placed in teh Writing Station for classroom management purposes.
