The Buddy Bench Story
It's recess! Kids are screaming and balls are flying. Then you take a closer look, and find that some kids aren't joining in on the fun. Christian Bucks, a 2nd grader at Roundtown Elementary School, witnessed lonely classmates at his school's playground, and wanted to make sure everyone had a friend. His solution? The Buddy Bench – modeled after a bench he saw in a German school brochure.

If you are sitting on the bench … You are looking for a friend. When someone asks you to play, join them, and always remember to glance over at the school's Buddy Bench to invite new friends to join in on the fun. |

If you are not sitting on the bench … Ask your classmate on the buddy bench to play, and make a new friend today! Keep growing your circle of friends until everyone has someone to play with. :) |
