Unfortunately I don't know any direct resources. I really do hope they are out there and some will share.

But if you're willing to hunt, I know that this idea was attempted before[0]. France and USSR had better success than the US. I'm sure there are still people working in this direction. I don't have children, but fwiw I've taught my nieces and nephews algebra and even some of calculus before they were 10 just in visiting time during vacations. They were bored and it seemed more fun than talking about the drama, politics, and religion that the rest of my family likes to spend most of their time on. Kids were similarly disinterested in that stuff lol. I've also seen my god{son,daughter} be able to learn these types of skills, so I'm highly confident it is doable.
