It's delightful to have a curriculum that allows me to combine my kids while allowing them to explore their God-given gifts and passions individually. With Sonlight, we felt the freedom to have Paul follow along in a Science program that was technically out of his age range. The result was a 5-year-old who learned a TON of science and perhaps discovered his passion. In this picture, Luke (7) had already moved on, but Paul was fairly sure the bulb would be even brighter if he added a fourth battery. And it worked! Both boys were jazzed with the results. In their family's third year of Sonlight, Paul and Luke share Core A and Science C. 

"I knew I wanted to homeschool from the time I had my first son, but I was afraid that I wasn't smart enough or organized enough to give him the VERY best. So when I received the 2nd Grade All Subjects package from Sonlight I was so relieved at how simply everything was laid out for me. And as we finish up this school year I am just so grateful to Sonlight for helping me give my children an exceptional education," writes Tiffany P of Sanford, North Carolina. Here, Jason (7), Sebastian (2) and Rosalie (4) look at Dinosaurs Unleashed from Science C.

The Sonlight Instructor's Guides have relieved much of the stress of teaching. My husband can jump right in and help because the information is well-organized and easy to follow. Not coming from an evangelical Christian background, we worried that the missionary component might be too much for our liking. On the contrary, we love how it breaks us out of our 'American bubble.' The stories have been so strengthening to our faith! It just reaffirms that God is not white or any other race, but an eternal God who loves variety in His family. In their second year of Sonlight, Caleb (4) is using Core A, while Sarah (7), Chloe (9) and Abigail (9) share Core D. Here, they work together on a buzzer circuit experiment from Science C.
