What is a Bucket Filler?
The idea of being a bucket filler comes from the book; Have You Filled a Bucket Today? A Guide to Daily Happiness for Kids, by Carol McCloud and David Messing. The original concept was first created by: Donald O. Clifton (1924-2003) in the 1960's. The basic idea is that we all carry an invisible bucket around with us each day. This bucket contains our feelings. When our bucket is full, we feel happy; when it is empty, we feel sad or angry. A Bucket Filler is someone who says or does something nice for other people. By being a Bucket Filler we fill other peoples’ buckets, and in turn we fill our own bucket. On the other hand, a Bucket Dipper says or does something to cause other people to feel bad. When you are dipping into someone else’s bucket you end up dipping into your own bucket. Bullies are bucket dippers. We here at WLE are Bucket Fillers! We try to fill others’ buckets throughout the day. Ask your child if they have filled someone’s bucket today.
