Learning Resources Good Behaviour Buckets, Ages 3+, Social Emotional Learning Toy, Classroom Behaviour Management, Preschool Activity, Set 34 Pieces

Great item always a great resource.

This item meets my expectations since I find it very useful for the classroom management. Moreover the material is really sturdy.

Because of my job I’m always thinking of ways to support my little ones so when this item came along I was excited to take it! You get two buckets, one with a happy face, the other one sad. You also receive thirty plastic sticks and two sheets of labels, one preprinted with activities. My first thought was that the buckets look sturdy and well presented, the sticks also look excellent - hearts and stars for good, thunderbolts and clouds for not so good. I am a little gutted at seeing the American terms for behaviour on the preprinted stickers, it could have been tweaked to suit the English market as I doubt some of my little ones will understand what it means! If you plan to print your own labels it’s unlikely to fit and I’m unsure if there’s a suitable template online. Maybe worth laminating and glueing it on instead. That said you can either use it as a reward bucket and as a way of highlighting behaviour at home or in school. Or as I am planning on using it, as an intervention activity where I’m going to encourage the students to sort through the sticks and put positive and negative behaviours in the right buckets. I am going to create my own labels for the sticks though which may hide the pretty shapes but will make more sense for my children. It’s a wonderful idea though, albeit a bit expensive.

Very effective for my special needs daughter, visual and simple to use

My daughter is using this for my grandson and is getting along fine with it

I’m not sure I like this concept of “good” and “bad” behaviour. The set is made up of 2 buckets - one with a happy face and the other with a sad face. There are sticks that you receive blank and so have to peel off the enclosed stickers to complete the sticks - there is a blank sheet so you can write your own comments etc but there aren’t any spare sticks so you would need to discount some of the pre printed stickers. Quite a lot of the terms are very American - this should be made for the U.K. market or marked clearly on the front so you know this before ordering. Once a behaviour has been noted the child puts the relevant stick in the happy or sad pot - once you have a few in the pot they are likely to forget what “behaviours” are in there as you can’t read them when they’re placed together. I much prefer a chart that’s placed on the wall which is easier to see and understand. This is of course my own opinion and I know other people will like this concept it’s just not for me

Great for helping the little ones remember their manners and how to behave!

Wonderful quality, worked well for my son he loves it!
