About this template

Students learn to 'fill their own bucket' with kindness and drag smiley faces into a virtual bucket.

How it works

This template is designed to teach students the importance of self-care and kindness through a fun, interactive activity. Students begin by watching a video that explains the concept of filling their own emotional "bucket" as a foundation for helping others.

After the video, students can drag smiley faces into a virtual bucket, symbolizing acts of kindness or positive actions they’ve taken. This template fosters social-emotional learning (SEL), encourages empathy, and reinforces the idea that taking care of oneself enables us to better support others.
