Bucket Fillers

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

Throughout the semester we have been involved in a project called bucket fillers. This was inspired by a book by that same title. This book teaches the readers about treating people with respect and kindness. For the project that we did in my class each person in the class had a cup (the bucket in this case) with our names on them. Throughout the year we all were to fill everyone’s cups with positive messages. It is nice for all of us to read the wonderful things that people have written about us.

For children this kind of project can boost their self-esteem and self-worth. It will also create a sense on belonging and community within the classroom.
