Bump My Bucket

Bump My Bucket is an app that came out of a 4th-grade classroom STEM exercise that showed students the process of building a smartphone application. The purpose of the app is to encourage kids to describe their feelings and share them with their friends. Whenever a friend is feeling down or upset, their friends can communicate via the app that they are available to talk with them, helping them initiate discussions and problem resolution.

Bump My Bucket allows friends to understand each others’ emotions and motivates them to lift each other up.
