I have a room full of bucket fillers!


I couldn't be prouder of my munchkins!  What a fantastic four days we have had together....it flew by!

I pulled this book out of my bag today and read it to my munchkins...boy did they catch on fast!  We have been talking about making others feel good about themselves and about making ourselves feel good all week.  This book put it totally into prospective!  We make out buckets and put them in our cubbies.  I thought how can we utilize these in a way that they would get it?  I saw tons of ideas on other blogs and finally decided that we will talk at our afternoon meeting and each child will tell me one thing they did that filled someone else's bucket today.  I then wrote it and a piece of paper, dated it, and gave it to them to add to their bucket.  Hopefully by the end of the year we will have an overflowing bucket for each munchkin to take home and remember all the kind things they did for others throughout the year.

I'm hoping they continue to respond to this learning experiment!  So remember to go out and fill other's buckets and yours will get full as well!
