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.

"My children have become friends, and I am very thankful for that. When in public school up to this year, they were NOT friends. They had friends at school, and did not have much use for each other at home. When we started homeschooling, I was so thankful that we chose Sonlight, because I am able to combine their Core studies and their Science. Every morning we start with them on either side of me, reading History, Bible and Science. They connect over their shared learning, and the tone is set for the rest of the day, even as they go to their separate studies. Zoe (10) and Noah (8) share Core B and Science B in their first year of Sonlight. 

My girls love Sonlight Science, with its great hands-on experiments. I was terrified to homeschool because I had no experience. I couldn't do it without Sonlight to put it all together for me. I can provide an outstanding education for my girls without spending lots of prep time. The wonderful books and complete schedules allow me to homeschool with confidence and still have time for my own interests. Sonlight has allowed me to follow the Lord's direction for our family. Here, Grandpa, Lucy (5, P4/5 Multi-Subject), Grace and Annie (9 and 7, Core B, Science B), confirm what they've just learned about the moon and space.
