I've been homeschooling for 10 years. My 16 year old daughter is starting college this year. My son has an IEP, so I have to teach teo extreme sides of the spectrum. I've tried a few curriculums but found that customized ones work best.

The first year or two of homeschool can be very difficult. Learn about teaching if you can. Otherwise, look for co ops and mentors. YouTube has so many great instructional videos. Kahn Academy is one of my favorite YouTube channels. There is just too much to choose from.

I started with Montessori. https://www.montessorinature.com/a-guide-to-montessori-curriculum-and/

I also tried Classical Christian. Look them up if you want to teach Latin. I recommend studying Latin and ancient Greek philosophy. It crosses  over many subjects.

Find out what interests your kids and let them focus on that. Have fun and don't get into power struggles. Learning should be enjoyable.
