Handwriting Without Tears is a fabulous program. I have been amazed how much more confident my daughter is at writing within two short months. Not only did her handwriting improve but she grasped letters and numbers so much better! It is so well structured that your child learns so much in just a few short lessons. Isabella loves the colorful and fun workbook as well as the hands-on activities that come with it, such as the chalkboard and wood blocks. Four-year-old Isabella proudly displays her handiwork from the Handwriting Without Tears Package K (#HWK). 

"I was so excited when I browsed my first Sonlight catalog and saw they included Handwriting Without Tears," writes Melissa N of Chittenango, NY. "I was already working with Handwriting Without Tears when our first Sonlight materials arrived and found integrating the Sonlight Language Arts for Grade K Readers program into what we were already doing an easy transition. Thank you Sonlight for recognizing that every child is different and for giving parents a variety of options to choose from!" Here, Sawyer (5) and Coen (3) work with the Handwriting Without Tears manipulatives in their second year of Sonlight.

Each year I am proud to adventure through the most incredible literary selections with our children. Using Sonlight is truly an experience I wish I had had, but am so blessed to give our children! I have read some titles that were hard to swallow – deep content, thoughtful multicultural exposure – and have tasted and seen the presence of the Lord in all areas of our education at home. Here, 5-year-old Joseph shows off a real letter he wrote thanks to his Handwriting Without Tears program and a writing prompt from Core A. Carron says Joseph felt very grown up when he mailed his letter; he was so pleased with his ability to communicate.
