Home education is a viable education choice for parents. We home educated all nine of our children K-12. They've all completed undergraduate degrees, and five of them have post graduate degrees including two PhDs in Mechanical Engineering. They are all married and seven of them are parents -- the two youngest couples don't have children as of yet. But, not all of these parents home educate our grandchildren -- some attend small five day Christian schools or hybrid 3 days on campus/2 days at home Christian schools. The beauty of this is that you have options! As your children are just 5 and 6, concentrate on teaching them a love of learning in an enriched home or part time school environment. Read aloud to them every day while you research your options. The hslda.org website has very comprehensive resources that can guide and direct you and your wife in making the best decision for your children and your family.
