My wife taught all our 4 homeschoolers to read very early using “Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons” by Englemann which is an amazing classic.
You can have your children reading in a few months when they are ready, and then they can have a steady stream of books around them after that and you are off to the races!
With this book you or your wife pushes through with a concentrated effort and in short order you have accomplished the most fundamental education milestone and your child is ahead of the game! Feels great!
I would send it as a gift, but don’t have your address; its worth its weight in gold.
In a similar vein I would strongly recommend similar books that take your children through many structured lessons — math, language etc. It is very hard for a homeschooling parent to comprehensively cover what a child should learn without the structure that is provided by such materials.
