One of the things I love most about Sonlight has been how it has encouraged family learning. What could be more wonderful than watching big sisters and brothers reading and teaching the younger ones? When I'm reading from one of the many fabulous Sonlight books, it's magnetic. I may start reading to one child, but pretty soon, the room is quiet and several are listening and snuggling up on the couch! I just can't say enough about how the incredible literature has enhanced our togetherness. We've been using Sonlight for 13 wonderful years and are going to have our first graduate this year! Our youngest is just beginning her Sonlight adventure. Angelina (5) and Isabella (11) are using Cores A and H.
Before finding Sonlight, I was a panicked mom, praying I'd find a curriculum that wouldn't cause a daily battle between mother and children. Now my boys can't hide their excitement about starting school! Their enthusiasm is an answer to many prayers. Not only is there no fight, but they're asking me to read more almost every day, year after year. Sonlight has definitely been a 'God thing' for us. Our baby girl is due in November and she'll be a Sonlight child from birth! Nathan (9) and Micah (6) are studying Cores A and D in the W family's sixth Sonlight year.
In the beginning, I pulled from different places to teach and always felt like I was missing something. Sonlight has everything laid out, so I can spend more time enjoying the learning process with my girls instead of stressing that they're not getting the whole story. We especially love the Read-Alouds, the highlight of our day. It's not uncommon for me to start reading while they lounge about, before they're drawn in and fully focused on the story, asking questions and discussing. 'I wonder what will happen to Charlotte?', my youngest pondered as we read Charlotte's Web [from Core B]. I'm so glad we found you! Emily (8) and Katie (6) are studying Core B in their second year of Sonlight.
