Moving into more formal instructional resources, I highly recommend:

I recommend this book for the parent that is interested in a more in depth art program that they can easily implement themselves by following this book.
 There are many sites and blogs that refer to this book and offer lesson plans that compliment this resource. Refer to my link page or click this Donna Young link for such lesson plans.
