Hello Carter. I'm glad you've joined us here on the forums. Congratulations on your decision to homeschool your children, it is an adventure.
One small bit of advice I can give you is have fun! Your children are young and they don't need to know how to multiply or read the newspaper yet. Just begin with Phonics and counting and that's all that's necessary for k. Read to them, teach them good manners and obedience to make any future schooling easier. Let them color, explore, play, climb, cut paper and glue things... You have many years to teach academics. Right now, teach them to love learning!
Hope this helps! come here for encouragement and to share your tips. You may not think so now but you will gain confidence and be able to share with us your triumphs and encourage us too!!
I hope this helps

Hello Carter26!
Welcome, welcome, welcome! Stop by here often to let us know how we can encourage you.
I totally agree with quiver, who is an extremely wise woman Smile Your kids are so young. Don't get too caught up in academics yet. There is plenty of time for that.
I pray you have many wonderful days!
Blessings,
Christine
