We love Sonlight because it teaches our children to think critically about what they are learning. It challenges them to carefully consider the worldview that the media and many of their friends hold. They are learning that the biblical worldview is supported by science (among other subjects) and they are learning how to defend their faith. Sonlight also breaks us free from the 'school at home' mindset by allowing a more relaxed learning environment and encouraging discussion rather than completing lots of worksheets. Thanks Sonlight! Here, twelve-year-old Mackenzie reads from Science G in her third year of Sonlight.

Does Sonlight really develop a love for learning? You bet Emma reads in the morning, afternoon and just before bedtime. Here, she just HAD to start a new book ... prior to breakfast, getting dressed or doing her morning chores. How could I say no to this insatiable love for reading that Sonlight has helped develop? Sonlight has helped our first three years of homeschooling be a blessing and success! School is fun, not boring, and the books are so exciting. Eight-year-old Emma is diving into Core C this year as little sister Audrey starts on P3/4.

With Ethan turning five this year, I knew I needed to figure out what to do about schooling him. God placed it in my heart to home school my kids, but I had no idea where to begin. After spending months on the internet searching for homeschooling curriculum and material, it was clear to me that Sonlight was the best. The faith-based curriculum, the organized and easy to follow instructor guides, the way everything was laid out- amazed me. No one in my family and no one I knew had ever home-schooled their children, but I was so excited and eager to begin. My kids love learning, and are as pleased with Sonlight as my husband and I are. We are studying the kindergarten multisubject package with our five and a half year old son, Ethan, and doing preschool with our three and half year old daughter, Naomi. They love everything- the books, math materials, history, and reading the Bible. Ethan was especially drawn to the maps, asking us to point out where everyone he knew could be located. We were also able to show him Ukraine, the country his father and I were born in, and were presented with great opportunity to explain to him more about our heritage. He was thrilled when we got him a globe, wanting to encourage his interest. My husband and I love how all the material helps our family bond and grow together. We are so thankful for Sonlight and for the opportunity to educate our kids with confidence.
