I am thrilled that Sonlight has so many Biblical teaching tools available. Incorporating the Bible into our everyday routine was a must. I feel so blessed to have quality time with my children. Even our 20-month-old, Sophia, loves to listen to the Read-Alouds. Homeschooling with Sonlight has been a wonderful experience! In their first year of Sonlight, Chance (8) and Hunter (6) share Core C and Science C. Here, they soak up real-world learning as they examine caterpillars making cocoons. 

No one but Sonlight offered a curriculum that gave such a wonderful overview of the Eastern Hemisphere countries and cultures! The books helped our children understand what they would experience before we went to South Africa for two months. Reading 'A Journey to Jo'burg' aloud on the porch of our house outside Jo'burg [Johannesburg] had an incredibly powerful impact and helped all of us (parents included) understand the depth of apartheid and the healing South Africa is going through. And as their father continues to travel the world with his job, our five kids have a window into those faraway places through the wonderful books in Core F. Thirteen-year-old William got a big special kiss during his family's adventure. This was their first year of Sonlight.

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!
