Sonlight has instilled a love of learning and curiosity about God's world in our daughters. When Afton was in public school, she hated to read (and, that's an understatement!). It must have been the content because ever since schooling with Sonlight, she has a tremendous love for reading and a deep love for history. Through rich literature, our daughters are able to learn about historically significant events, people, and places in a fun and engaging way. Who am I kidding? I'm learning right alongside them! Here, Afton (14) and Anja (11) read their Core G books with Grandma and Grandpa … who love Sonlight books too!

I have structure and direction with Sonlight, so we capitalize on every learning moment. I often get pressured about my choice to homeschool. Thanks to Sonlight, I'm confident that I'm doing the right thing for my girls. I'm learning how to teach as well, which helps melt away the frustration and allows me to be a great teacher and mom. Through Sonlight, I've learned a better approach to phonics, and it has made a world of difference. What I love most is that I don't have to force my kids to learn. Hannah (5, Kindergarten Multi-Subject) and Gracie (2, Preschool Multi-Subject) love learning their letters and words outdoors.

With Ethan turning five this year, I knew I needed to figure out what to do about schooling him. God placed it in my heart to home school my kids, but I had no idea where to begin. After spending months on the internet searching for homeschooling curriculum and material, it was clear to me that Sonlight was the best. The faith-based curriculum, the organized and easy to follow instructor guides, the way everything was laid out- amazed me. No one in my family and no one I knew had ever home-schooled their children, but I was so excited and eager to begin. My kids love learning, and are as pleased with Sonlight as my husband and I are. We are studying the kindergarten multisubject package with our five and a half year old son, Ethan, and doing preschool with our three and half year old daughter, Naomi. They love everything- the books, math materials, history, and reading the Bible. Ethan was especially drawn to the maps, asking us to point out where everyone he knew could be located. We were also able to show him Ukraine, the country his father and I were born in, and were presented with great opportunity to explain to him more about our heritage. He was thrilled when we got him a globe, wanting to encourage his interest. My husband and I love how all the material helps our family bond and grow together. We are so thankful for Sonlight and for the opportunity to educate our kids with confidence.
