The Explode the Code series is a great phonics and handwriting program. The reason I like it is because not only are the children learning phonics in a systematic order but they are also practicing their handwriting skills. It's a two for one! There are 3 primer books (called A, B, C) and 8 regular workbooks. It is very straightforward and fun to do. This program is available through most major online homeschooling resource sites. (ldfr.com, timberdoodle.com, etc)
My kids have all really enjoyed going through this series. They have always looked forward to doing it. They love doing lots of pages in it daily. We wish they had a grammar program.
Our family recommends this phonics and handwriting program. It's the best one we have seen!

couldn't agree with you more! I LOVE ETC books! My daughter learned to read from them, it was almost too simple!
We used Explode the Code a little, but I learned Spalding Phonics and we did that instead. We are not super formal on the rules of Spalding however.
As for grammar, we love Winston Grammar Basic and Advanced. LDFR.com sells those too.
