Your job as a parent is not primarily to keep your child "happy," but rather to train him up to be a responsible adult. One way to begin to accomplish this goal is to give your children responsibilities around the house. Doing chores and getting paid for a job well done, helps the child to make the connection between working hard and making money. Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace Jr. is a great resource for helping you to do this.

These books are scheduled throughout the kindergarten year. Big Truths for Little Kids teaches the catechism with stories illustrating the answers to each of the questions. The kindergartener will make it through half of this book, finishing the rest in first grade. My ABC Bible Verses also teaches through stories, so the child doesn't merely memorize words, but rather learns the meaning of the verses he is memorizing.

Saxon math is an excellent "scripted" math program, that is very easy to teach, even for the math phobics out there. We recommend you use Saxon 2 in first grade. Saxon 1 is more of a kindergarten math program. If you are unsure if your child is ready have him take a placement test. Make sure to purchase the Teacher's Manual, Workbooks, Fact Cards, and Math Manipulatives.
