Bible D

"Story of our Sonlight life: always wanting more," writes Kevin S of Chesapeake, VA.  "By the end of the first week [of P4/5], we were ahead of schedule. I finally had to tell Kayleigh 'no more.' We did Core F for more than two years. You'd think that we'd be tired of it, but we were sad to see it end. The books were so good I'm surprised we were able to stretch it out, with all of the sneaky reading ahead that goes on around here!" Here, Mackenzie (11, Core F), who's been studying with Sonlight for eight years, is caught on camera, peeking at the next day's lesson. Enthusiastic sister Kayleigh (4) is a new Sonlight student.

"Sonlight does a great job of encouraging my children to have a firm foundation in Christ and to seek knowledge and wisdom. The curriculum has helped develop their heart for serving Christ and sharing God's love. We love the missionary stories and the time learning from the Bible together. The history is so full and rich, and what we're learning has helped all of us better understand why people believe and do what they do today. Living books really do help our children understand a time period and develop their own writing skills … no comparison to dry textbook education! I love that their heroes are men and women of faith, not some here-today-gone-tomorrow pop star." In their seventh year of Sonlight, Samantha (10, Level F), Karlie (7, Level B) and Brandon (4, Pre-Kindergarten) read their Bibles at a favorite outdoor spot. – Sarah R of Earlham, IA

Sonlight gives my children a love for learning, and if they love learning, they can succeed in whatever they decide to do in life. Great books make History and Science come alive. Through reading, their vocabulary grows and they learn proper grammar and writing. It's exciting to see them seek out more information on a subject, and for fun, reenact what they're learning. Cameron (11) and Jackson (9), in their third year of Sonlight adventures, are exploring Core F.
