Fearfully and Wonderfully Made

Sonlight is Christ-centered, well-organized, easy to teach, trustworthy, affordable, and most of all, fun! The teacher's guide is easy to follow, requiring no preparation or planning on my part. The books and materials are beautiful and Christ-centered, highlighting the unique people and creation of the world. And most importantly, my children love their school time: reading, creating, singing, and especially science project times with Daddy. I had no idea how much children learn through listening to books read aloud. It's truly amazing. Here, 3-year-old Keira confidently announces "and this is a chrysalis" to her 5-year-old sister, Naomi. Naomi is studying Core A in her second year of Sonlight as Keira listens in. 

We love Sonlight because it teaches our children to think critically about what they are learning. It challenges them to carefully consider the worldview that the media and many of their friends hold. They are learning that the biblical worldview is supported by science (among other subjects) and they are learning how to defend their faith. Sonlight also breaks us free from the 'school at home' mindset by allowing a more relaxed learning environment and encouraging discussion rather than completing lots of worksheets. Thanks Sonlight! Here, twelve-year-old Mackenzie reads from Science G in her third year of Sonlight.

"I can't imagine embarking on this journey without the day-by-day guidance Sonlight offers. It's also handy if I need to utilize a substitute teacher, like Daddy or Grandma! But it's not just about having our schedule all laid out; it's the content that draws our family into this adventure. I love that Sonlight is Christ-centered, with a genuine heart for the entire world. I appreciate the critical thinking it encourages, and how it helps us navigate deep topics. I'm thankful we have the opportunity to grow and learn together as a family in this special way." In his fourth year of Sonlight, Isaac (9, Level E) takes pride in another successful science experiment.
