No.....not with rain water, although we would have plenty for that! We took time to fill each others personal "buckets". These are the "buckets" that get filled when we receive a kind comment or when a friend offers to help us out. The "buckets" that get drained easily when we have a negative interaction with another person or words come out that we wish we could take back.
As student leaders, the third graders found out just how easy it can be to fill someone's bucket with this easy activity. Each of us (I did it, too!!) wrote our name on paper and each member rotated through and wrote something on each paper. Some wrote compliments and others jotted down a memories that they remembered with that other person. When we were done, our own paper was filled with unique and bucket-filling words that definitely brought smiles to our faces so early on a Tuesday morning. What an awesome way to start the day!
