Michele I know that both Susan and Pilgrim has given very good links to some good stuff now the Baptist in me also wants to get a word in. Here is the url to the Children's Prove it Catechism written for Baptist Children. This is a program that the children can interact with and is written for easy understanding. http://www.vor.org/rbdisk/proveit.htm
I can't add to anything you've read here. When I was a young catechumen in the Lutheran church I like your husband was taught the doctrines and like your husband remembered nothing when I was older. Part of the reason is that the church I went to was what we now call liberal(they called themselves progressive) so they didn't do what I would do now if I had young minds full of mush ready to be molded around and that is make them memorize the questions and answers.
Anyway try the program if you so desire it is freeware.
