The other day during Kindergarten class, the school counselor read a wonderful book to the kids about being a "Bucket Filler". A Bucket Filler is someone who fills another person's bucket with joy.
Everyone has a bucket but it's invisible. However, there are people out there who like to be "Bucket Dippers". They empty the bucket's of others by being mean or doing harmful things.
I thought this was a wonderful lesson to teach the kids now and as they grow hopefully, they'll keep this story lesson in mind forever. It's a pretty good way to live your life.

What a simple way to teach a child to be nice. I love this!
Yep - it's a good lesson for us adults too. I know some bucket tippers out there!
Great lesson for them and us to hear!
