My husband is a GREAT husband and a wonderful father and while he is happy that I homeschool our children he leaves most of that up to me. That's okay with me, but I sure am thrilled when he helps with one or more part!
He has tried doing "bookwork" with the children, but he (and the children) don't enjoy that very much! ;) He is happy to leave that up to me and the children prefer it that way too!
What he is GREAT at is the hands-on stuff. I am amazed at what my children are capable of... stuff I don't even know how to do! Let me list a few of the things I had NO HAND in teaching our children:
