Listen to the Snuggles Podcast version of the story:
\n<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Carol has taken the ideas of the book and built an entire website and movement, so to speak, to help children (and adults) become bucket fillers.<\/p>\n
From her website:<\/p>\n
What are Bucketfillers? <\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
“Bucket fillers” are those who help without being asked, give hugs and compliments, and generally spread their love and good feelings to others. <\/span>The simple metaphor of a bucket helps even preschoolers understand the importance of consideration and love, particularly towards those who bully.<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Through schools and other means she puts on seminars around the country helping children to see the value of being bucketfillers. She also has products for families and schools to proudly proclaim “I’m a bucketfiller”. You can see those when you visit her website<\/a>.<\/p>\n
