Teaching kids to fill buckets

"Thanks for sharing yesterday. Danny enjoyed it and I got my bucket filled. He was so sweet and the things he said made me want to cry. Very encouraging."

"My 6th grader came home today and wrote the most beautiful examples of why he loves and respects his little brother. I’m not sure what kind of event you had at school today, January 28, 2009, but this truly is the most amazing experience we had at home in a long time. I just wanted to take a moment to say that it was great. My boys fight like siblings do, some days more than others. Today (my son) wrote about (his brother). (His brother) listened with tears in his eyes, sensitive to the fact that his big brother really does love him. I have to say that this is one of the most memorable events experienced at Crissman. Totally awesome! Thanks."

"That was the best assembly I’ve ever seen at our school. Everything was perfect—the length, the humor, how it kept the students’ attention and got the positive message to them so effectively, the humor. All of it was great! We are very pleased."
