We are a train-the-trainer model with proprietary creative and customizable social-emotional learning (SEL) education for young boys (Pre-K - 5th grade).

Level One for Pre-K Boys
Level Two for Kindergarten Boys
Level Three for First & Second-Grade Boys
Level Four for Third & Fourth-Grade Boys
Level Five for Fifth-Grade Boys
“Build Up Boys’ curriculum is incredibly thoughtful and wonderful. I love that it all fits together into one larger framework using what has come before.”
Please email us at info@buildupboys.com if you’re interested in enrolling your boy in one of our workshops or would like us to train local educators and/or community members to run one of our workshops for boys.
“Founder Kimmi Berlin has created an excellent resource for parents, educators, and anyone with boys’ best interests at heart to support boys’ healthy emotional and relational development. Build Up Boys delivers thoughtfully designed, evidence-backed exercises that use accessible language and engage boys in ways that are fun, practical, relatable, and meaningful. The launch of this impressive curriculum could not be more timely as we strive, with some urgency, to foster boys’ connections to themselves and to others.”
“These days we are desperately looking for a way to raise healthy boys and young men with wisdom and humanity. Kimmi Berlin has done an outstanding job of creating a curriculum. It is one that is informed not only by evidence but also by heart. It is accessible, teachable, and fun”
