Treasures are unfolding in our Home School. Sonlight Core B is opening my daughter's eyes to a bigger world. Each of them are gathering knowledge and understanding that there are different people, cultures, beliefs, and places far beyond what they experience in our community. Comparing money from Russia, Honduras, Cuba, China, Hong Kong, Panama and USA gave them concrete knowledge. Reading about passports and visas came alive as they held their own passports with visas and stamps from China and Hong Kong. Reading becomes reality with Sonlight. 

A key aspect of Sonlight we've enjoyed these past 12 years is the ability to integrate learning and living. Good literature is at the heart of Sonlight, and sharing books together is at the heart of our school and life as a family. Some of my favorite moments of parenting and homeschooling involve reading to my boys alongside our outdoor adventures. Immersing ourselves in history and literature has been the backbone of our many years with Sonlight. I wouldn't trade it for a minute!

The W family (including Luke, Per and Jan, not pictured) has been studying with Sonlight for 12 years.

Thank you, Lord, for Sonlight, and for Christ-centered curriculum that makes it easy to share our faith with our children. On 'Box Day,' our girls couldn't wait to see all the books they would read this year. When they pulled out Leading Little Ones to God, I teasingly said, 'It looks like I'm going to lead you to God this year.' With a serious look, Meghan said, 'But you already have.' Wow! Tears of thankfulness filled my eyes. In their second Sonlight year, Meghan (8) and Ava (6) are using Core B.
