Reddit mentions of How Full Is Your Bucket? For Kids

The best children's book ever is The Monster at the End of this Book (Starring lovable furry old Grover).

However, the books I must recommend are

• How Full is Your Bucket (For Kids) which is based on some proper grown-up self-help book I have not read. It teaches kids to think about how they are making others feel and be aware of how they are feeling and most importantly how those two things interact. How people can lash out when they are emotionally drained and how helping others makes you feel better too.
  
  and
  
  
• Each Kindness This is pretty heavy and it will leave everyone feeling pretty sad at the end. I still can't read it without getting teary. However that's the point. It's meant to make children reflect on how they treat people. The story is told from the point of view of a girl at school. A new girl joins the class and it's clear she comes from a family which is struggling financially. The new girl tries to make friends but the main character and other girls snub her until she's forced to reflect on how she's been treating the new girl but before she can do anything to make things right, the new girl moves to a different school and the main character is left to deal with that regret.
  
  These were both great ways to start discussions with my 5-year-old daughter. Another one which was good for talking about feelings was a picture book adaptation of Inside Out (the Pixar movie). She's found "who is driving the console?" a good way to frame what she and other people are feeling.

How full is your bucket

Every year at school for some years, we start the year with the book How Full is Your Bucket. Your generosity really had filled my bucket many times over. Thank you for your suggestions. I'll check the book out

This is completely anecdotal, but when my kids had a hitting problem, I got this book: http://www.amazon.com/How-Full-Your-Bucket-Kids/dp/1595620273/ref=pd_sim_b_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=1KZD83SN4V2QQPCT8RNJ

We talked about hitting people taking out of their bucket and doing nice things adding to their bucket. Maybe it'll work for you, maybe not, but I found it helpful. Good luck!
