"One of the first science experiments in Science A was to go outside and count the number of living creatures we could find," writes Catriona W of Uganda. "This was an incredibly rewarding experience, and captivated the boys. Now they always look forward to the experiments and practical demonstrations, and these provide a far better foundation than material that would be covered in a classroom setting. We love the way Sonlight builds around real-life experiences and examples, and has plenty of suggestions for practical tasks, field trips, and other ways to bring the material to life." Here, 6-year-old Isaac inspects a grasshopper he found.

I am officially convinced that Sonlight has the most fun science program ever! Sonlight science encourages a curiosity about God's creation and a love of learning about it. It is perfect for our boys because it has a good mix of reading, worksheets, outside discovery and hands-on experiments. It is designed in a way that we can all do the same things together, and the teachers manual makes the lesson planning so easy. In their first year of Sonlight, Zachary (5) and Anthony (4) are quite proud of the seedlings they grew with their Science A program. 

"Sonlight cultivates our children's natural love of learning and sense of adventure," writes Brian G of Lompoc, CA. "Through the books that find a second life as bedtime stories, the science experiments that give them a newly informed perspective on how things work, and the Bible stories that point them to God, Sonlight has enriched our lives in countless ways." Here, Samuel (3) and Daniel (5) conduct a simple experiment from Science A, exploring air resistance with acorn parachutes.
