Here's something I wrote up (borrowed heavily from the Scouts) for a class I was teaching of 12-14 year old boys about performing "good deeds". Really, you could introduce the concept to boys as young as 6 or 7.
Sometimes in the past I haven't emphasized this enough for fear of getting into a theological "faith vs. works" conundrum or falling in with the "random acts of kindness" crowd, but in practice I have seen that giving boys encouragement to perform good deeds only serves to help them form the heart attitudes that ultimately produce more good deeds.
