"We are very thankful for Sonlight curriculum that challenges Eli, stretching and maturing him in preparation for college," writes Cory T of Haiti. "The resources Sonlight provides and the emphasis on thinking through information, looking at issues from various perspectives, and communication skills will be very helpful in any college atmosphere. The books hold Eli's interest and motivate learning. And the organized Instructor's Guides help us move effectively through our school days while balancing school and ministry." Here, 14-year-old Eli and 11-year-old Anna take a break from studies to help at a blood pressure screening. In their sixth year of Sonlight, Eli uses Core 300 as Anna studies Core H. 

This is my son Timothy, on our very first Box Day in 2010. The moment I opened the box and brought out the books, he started flipping through them and playing with the pattern blocks which came with his math set. We started school the very next day. We are now on our third year of home schooling, also our third with Sonlight, and the excitement of Box Day remains the same. (We are actually, as of this writing, awaiting our third core, Core B!) My son enjoys the books and activities, and I love seeing him having fun while learning. Even I have learned so much from Core A! More than once I've said, "This is fascinating! How come I wasn't fascinated like this when I was studying?"

When I first read the Sonlight forums and how kids would beg for one more chapter or to do school on the weekends, I didn't believe it. I do now. We have had many days where begging to do school is the norm. I know that with a love of learning she will be able to do anything she sets her mind to. I couldn't ask for more out of a homeschool curriculum. Not only is 5-year-old Valerie getting a great education ... so are her stuffed animals! Valerie is studying Core A in her third year of Sonlight.
