We used Drawing with Children throughout all grades for art across the curriculum!
As more schools are cutting out art, I think any parent (homeschooling or not) should invest some time and a bit of money into good art products for their families.
The Drawing with Children book(s) (also Older Children & Teens version) are very well presented. Adults can learn right along with their students.
The books are reasonably prices at about $16. They have been around for 10 years, so they should be pretty easy to find used.
What the public schools don't seem to be seeing, in my opinion, is that art relates to all subjects. This is emphasized in these books for learning realistic drawing. Art relates to everything, including math!
