Real estate is the perfect industry for moms who don't want to clock into a cubicle every day, and it's high time we wrestled it away from the suits.
First of all, it's flexible, whether you enter on the real estate agent side, or the real estate investing side (or both, for that matter). You make your OWN schedule, not slave to someone else's, so you can work it around your kids, etc.
Second, it can be extremely lucrative, on part time hours.
Finally, who knows more about homes, houses, and real estate than a mom?
I'd start with the following articles & quick reads, they're free and easy to follow for beginners:
