TAYLOR PARKS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: Being a 'Bucket Filler'


Taylor Parks Elementary School students were treated to any assembly about “How to Be a Bucket Filler.”

Based on the popular book by Carol McCloud – “Have You Filled a Bucket Today? A Guide to Daily Happiness for Kids,” presenters Jan Merz and Peggy Johncox defined a “Bucket Filler.”

“Bucket Filling” can be actions or words that show that you care about someone. Saying or doing something kind. It could be just giving someone a smile. There are hundreds of wonderful ways to fill buckets. Then the students listened as “Bucket Dipping” was discussed.  

It could be making fun of someone or doing unkind things, being disrespectful is “Bucket Dipping.”  It is also dipping when we unintentionally dip into another's bucket with a thoughtless word or careless action.

Everyone at Taylor Parks is proud to be “Bucket Fillers.”
