Have You Filled a Bucket Today? The Musical
This fun-filled musical from Virginia Repertory Theatre is based on the concepts in Carol McCloud’s award-winning children’s books, Have You Filled a Bucket Today?, Growing Up with a Bucket Full of Happiness and Ann Marie Gardinier Halstead’s book, The Bucket Filling Fairy. The books and play use the concept of a “bucket” to show students how to express kindness, appreciation, and a love to be “bucket-fillers” through positive, thoughtful behavior. Have you Filled a Bucket Today: The Musical! relays the joys of friendship and compassion for both the receiver and the giver. Help teach students to be bucket-fillers rather than bucket-dippers with this musical performance designed to promote healthy relationships, self-esteem, and bring character education front-and-center stage at your school.
