We all love Sonlight for so many reasons, but one of the main reasons is that our kids have time to be KIDS! I'm so thankful that with the carefully laid-out schedule and quality Christ-based education, we can get a solid education and still have time for unstructured, creative play. Not only do they have time for academics, but they also have time to explore God's creation firsthand, not just in a book between overscheduled activities. Here, Steven (7, Core B) and Megan (4, Core A) do just that!
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.
We have seen the truth of Sonlight's claim that children learn history better when they learn it in the form of a story. Because of Sonlight's Readers and Read-Alouds, our kids have a better grasp and wider knowledge base of historical events at the end of middle school than their parents did at the end of college (due to our [non-Sonlight] textbook-style memorization of facts – facts that were soon forgotten or muddled because they weren't part of a story). Vashti (14) mentioned that some of her friends hate studying history. She said, 'If only they could learn history the Sonlight way, they'd love it like I do!' In her eigthth year of Sonlight, Vashti devours a biography from Core H that brings the Iron Curtain era to life.
