Hi,
I will be using PHFHG with 2 kids, on same level, do I need 2 sets of books for the deluxe set? Like Draw and Write through History? or others..not sure how it is going to work if 2 kids need to be using books at the same time.
Thanks,
Dena in MS

I think this really depends on preference. It is easy to just take turns...while one child does science have the other do history, then switch...or something else similar that works for you. If there will be a problem sharing (which sometimes happens even with older children, I'm speaking from experience!) or if you would just rather have 2 sets and you don't need to economize, it would make things slightly easier. Then you won't have to worry about anyone waiting on the other, etc. But, it's not absolutely necessary. We only got one set and my kids take turns...sometimes my ds has to wait on my dd to finish (he's the older one and sometimes quicker) then I'll have him do handwriting or read a book until she finishes. It works out fine for us to share. Hope that was somewhat helpful, but it really is up to you!

We are using Preparing with 3 dc and we have used only 1 set of books. They simply work on something else while another child is using "the book".

thanks Ladies,
I think one set will be fine, except the drawing book, they both want their own copies of it.

I am doing it with three children. It would have been helpful to have two drawing books.
