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'm heading off to college for the first time and can't help but feel a little jealous of my siblings, because they'll be doing Sonlight again this year," writes Kailey H of Marshfield, WI. "My family has loved learning so much since we started using Sonlight. History became my favorite subject, and I consumed all the books in each Core. I'm grateful for the in-depth Student Guides that forced me to think critically and caused me to formulate my own values. I feel well-prepared, and the thought of writing a college-level essay doesn't frighten me. I know I have the tools to be successful. Pictured are siblings Luke (15, Core 200), Abigail (13, Core H), Hope (10, Core G), and Mark (8, Core D).
"Sonlight helps us instill a biblical worldview and teach our children how to think through what they believe," writes Nicholas D, Green Bay, WI. "It's fun to see God bring up lessons we're learning through our books at other times during the day. We appreciate the study of world cultures and the focus on sharing God's love with all people. Reading together prompts fascinating discussions and encourages us to ask questions. Sonlight truly inspires a lifestyle of learning and makes it easy for us to learn together as a family. Here, nobody wants to miss out on Read-Aloud time, even if they've heard the story before! Kalysta (5) and Tryana (6) are using Core A, Myranda (9) Core E and Alyssa (12) Core H in the family's eighth Sonlight year.

Details.In "The Important of Being Earnest" book by author Oscar Wilde, a bored lord invents a relative as a useful excuse for avoiding unpleasant social engagements.
Unfortunately, however, this "relative" visits his house and falls in love with his ward. A lesson in the importance of honesty--or, shall we say, of being earnest. Fun.
