Now that my older kid is 4, we've found out from various sources that kids at this young age (under 3) should develop their right brian as much as possible. My younger girl is now 2 and we are doing flash cards with her daily. The results are rather impressive and she seems to be able to absorb whatever we are teaching her.
If you like, you may want to also try out flashing cards based on bible pictures and characters. I printed out some bible-based keyword (in red) and laminated them. You may like to try this method as part of your homeschool lesson plan for your young kids
Oh..i forgot the baby signing part..that works wonderfully well too.
The kids simply love it and we did observed benefits such as an increase in speech development and responsiveness.

I think a formal education is fine for a 3 year old as long as they are willing and eager to do it. I started a formal homeschool setting with my daughter when she was about 2.5 after I opened a pack of flashcards and she knew everything on them, including stuff I didn't teach her. Now she is almost 3 and is learning at a Kindergarten level. Right now we are doing "pre-preschool" ending in May. Then in Sept for regular preschool (she will be almost 3.5), we are using Horizons Preschool by Alpha Omega.
We are also doing a lot of science projects. We did an egg carton seed project, grew butterflies, we are currently doing a galaxy project. The next project is a Dora weather station.
We also have two memory verses each month.
She is eager and loves going to school. She asks for extra worksheets and tracing sheets too. Our time is anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour, depending on how long the baby sleeps - she would go longer if the baby slept longer!
I know many parents think that everyday play is all kids need and I agree it's very important (she takes part in practically everything I do from cleaning to baking to taking care of the baby). But if a child strives on academics, then go ahead and do something formally.

If you are attending a local church in your area, one possibility is to reuse the sunday school materials and re-enforce what they had learned in church. I usually go through the materials with my 3 year old and it always conclude with a coloring work of the bible characters.
Here is one resource that you can use online and have fun with them.
You can do the coloring while introducing the bible characters in a fun way.

Here are some great ideas for easy activities you can do with preschoolers:
Homeschooling Preschool
Letter of the week has a free curriculum for that age group:

The other program I would suggest you look at is Before Five in a Row:

Kumon also has some great workbooks for young preschoolers.
Good luck!
