Agreed. There is a lot of software available, as well as vast amounts of printed material, teaching aids, etc.
One of the best resources we have found is a book called "The Well-Trained Mind". It is an incredible resource for home-schoolers and public-schoolers who want to make sure their children are getting a well-balanced education.
It advocates the Classical Method of education... the kind that Thomas Jefferson had... plenty of emphasis on the classics and classical language.
This is the book that has inspired us to include Latin next year in our fourth grade homeschool.
