I vote for ebay. One of my favorite ebay sellers, Lemunro is a stay at home Mom in Australia. She sells the things her kids like-Wiggles, saddle club, Hi-5- stuff like that.
She always includes a nice note to her customers thanking them for helping her to be a homeschool Mom.
The most common at-home work I've seen is medical billing. Me, I work at home about 1/4 of the time, and I support a team of semiconductor scientists, so anything's possible.
I've been reading your posts for some time (I don't often answer), and I think you a good egg. Your kids are the luckiest kids in the world.
I do, my job is completely done from home through a VPN hook-up to the company I work for.
I monitor online sales for a local company that does a pretty large internet business as well.
This includes making sure internet orders are processed and shipped in a timely manner (I don't do the shipping, but I check on the orders online to make sure they have been shipped out).
Also includes monitoring search engine bidding (I like that part the best.)
I probably put in around 30 hours a week (over the course of 7 days), but my hours are early AM, late PM (after 9), and several checks through the day to see what needs to be adjusted on the search engines.
Mystery shopping is one cool way to make a little extra dough. It won't do a lot and you need to be near a big city normally.

I work from home a lot. I analyze acquisitions for a major Canadian company. I vet the acquisitions, prepare merger models, research the industries of the target, and figure out how to structure the transactions. I also do other valuation work for some other clients, such as valuing the stock options of a small privately-held software company. I love working for myself. But make sure you don't eat too much from the kitchen! And if your employer doesn't withhold, set aside money right away. Otherwise, you'll be sorry come April 15th.
I'm thinking it was JetBlue.
