Our Mission
More than a curriculum. A launchpad.
Most kids never get taught how to think like entrepreneurs: how to spot a problem, build a solution, pitch an idea, or lead a team. We're changing that.
Boss Kid Build is a stage-by-stage learning system designed to meet young people where they are and walk them all the way from "I have an idea" to "I have a business." Whether your child is learning at home, in a classroom, or through an ESA program, every kit is built to deliver real skills in a real-world context.
"Kids don't need to wait until they're adults to learn how to lead, earn, and build. They just need the right tools."
— Miriam Charles, Founder
Meet the Founder
Built by a teacher. Designed for your kid.
Hi, I'm Miriam. I'm a Texas Certified business educator, former instructional technologist, MBA-holder from Southeastern Oklahoma State University, and the mom behind Boss Kid Build.
It actually started with a box. Back in April 2019, I launched Boss Kid Box — a subscription box filled with books and activities for kids passionate about entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and growth mindset. It was the seed of everything you see today.
I created Boss Kid Build because I believed one thing deeply: every kid deserves to learn how business actually works, before high school, before it becomes a class, and long before someone tells them their idea is too big.
These kits don't dumb it down. They build it up. Because your kid isn't too young to think like a CEO. And who knows, the boxes may just make a comeback someday!
You're Set Up for Success
