"Rebecca L of Oakwood, OH, writes: "We chose Sonlight because of the way it opens each learner's eyes to the world. A world beyond suburban American life; a world that points back to a Creator, and a world filled with people diverse in background and gifting."

One of the things our family loves about Sonlight is that when an 'aha moment' of excitement strikes, we don't have to rush on to the next thing. We take our time and enjoy the learning experience for as long as they're excited about the subject. We then move on, knowing the next 'aha' is just around the corner, waiting in the next book! After reading Michelangelo during our study of Core C, Intro to World History, the girls decided they'd like to experience first-hand what it was like to paint on the ceiling of the Sistine chapel. They painted diligently for four days straight! Sarah (11), Maya (9) and brother Benjamin (8) have been studying with Sonlight since kindergarten and have now moved on to American History with Core D. 

"Sonlight's flexibility allowed us to do school together, despite the differences in my kids' ages," writes Rachel B. of Weatherford, TX. "We just finished our first year homeschooling two children, and I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was! James (5) was eager to jump into the History / Bible / Literature program Elizabeth (8) was using. Anne (2) got a kick out of 'supervising' her older siblings with me!" Elizabeth, James and Anne pose with all their Sonlight Read-Alouds.
