I have a friend who uses another curriculum, and she is always stressed out about time. Sonlight is different. I feel free to teach my children using their learning styles and my teaching style. The Instructor's Guides are great – I know exactly what to do each day. We can take time off if needed for spontaneity or vacation or whatever. The single BEST thing about Sonlight is all the wonderful books. Here, superhero Maximus (6) reads his morning devotions.

My girls actually learned more in the first month [of Sonlight] than they had the whole year before! Sonlight was recommended by a homeschooling mom who had four sons. I looked it over, and because of the lesson planning already being done for you, I thought it was the answer for having a newborn in our house. I thought we'd just 'try it out' for one year to see how it went. Well, when the books came, we fell in love! The W family has now used Sonlight for four years. Isabella (11) and Amarissa (9) are using Core E as siblings (not pictured) Arlin (4) and Ellianna (2) expore the Preschool Multi-Subject Package.  

Sonlight gives my children a love for learning, and if they love learning, they can succeed in whatever they decide to do in life. Great books make History and Science come alive. Through reading, their vocabulary grows and they learn proper grammar and writing. It's exciting to see them seek out more information on a subject, and for fun, reenact what they're learning. Cameron (11) and Jackson (9), in their third year of Sonlight adventures, are exploring Core F.
