Before I switched to Sonlight, I was a stressed-out mom. Especially in the area of science. Sonlight makes it so easy. The IGs lay things out for me and explain them so well that it's easy to follow along and the year flies by. The kids enjoy the Activity Sheets, and they absolutely love watching the experiment DVD and doing the hands-on activities. I like that there are always extra activity suggestions to enhance their learning. Sonlight has allowed me to spend more time enjoying the homeschool experience. Thank you! Here, Annah (5), Micah (10) and Jonah (9) identify the types of rocks they collected. The B family is studying Core B+C and Science C in their first year with Sonlight.

Sonlight is Christ-centered, well-organized, easy to teach, trustworthy, affordable, and most of all, fun! The teacher's guide is easy to follow, requiring no preparation or planning on my part. The books and materials are beautiful and Christ-centered, highlighting the unique people and creation of the world. And most importantly, my children love their school time: reading, creating, singing, and especially science project times with Daddy. I had no idea how much children learn through listening to books read aloud. It's truly amazing. Here, 3-year-old Keira confidently announces "and this is a chrysalis" to her 5-year-old sister, Naomi. Naomi is studying Core A in her second year of Sonlight as Keira listens in. 

"Thanks to Sonlight my kids are excited about learning and I feel well-prepared to teach them!" writes Rachyl R of Harrisburg, IL. "Sonlight has made learning come alive for us. We can open up a book and immediately be transported into a new world. As we adventured through American History this year with Level D, my kids were able to explore right along with Lewis and Clark, see what it was like to be there when the Constitution was signed, go on a mission with Adoniram Judson, and so much more. I often find my daughter up in bed at night sneaking in the next chapter in a Read-Aloud! " Here, Isabel (9) and Gunnar (6) learn about growing corn and beans with their famer father and a science experiments book from Science D.

"The great variety of topics covered in the Sonlight curriculum has provided so many opportunities to discuss important issues as a family. Our children understand that there is a world full of physical and spiritual needs, and countless people to whom we can show Christ's love. Read-Alouds are undoubtedly the highlight of our day. Sonlight Readers, with their great character development and interesting stories, have given my children a love of reading."
