I have a mother who keeps asking me to tutor her five year old in reading skills based on seeing how my girls read. How's that for hothousing?
How embarassing!
But does this mom know anything you want taught to your daughters? Maybe this is an attempt at building a friendship?
If the mom is willing to teach your 2 something while you sit with the 5 year old for 20 minutes I think that there might be a lot to be gained on all sides.
Wouldn't it be nice to have someone who you feel comfortable leaving your DDs with if you need to drive your DH to the ER for a broken toe in the middle of the night? This could be the start of that.
And I bet you a dollar that if you paid attention to any 5 year old reading for 20 mintues that you could figure out a small suggestion that would be a big help. You are smart and sensitive - it could happen!
My .02!
