"Even the technical aspects of science become clear when you have hands-on learning and great books with detailed, colorful graphics and kid-based wording," writes Lois B of Alberta, Canada. "I love the awesome science experiments Sonlight provides, making learning fun while including all the materials and planning so we can dive in." Here, Shilo (10) learns about bridge designs from Diary of an Early American Boy in Science E. She has used Sonlight from the start of her education.  

There are many reasons we choose Sonlight each year: We love the books, the Christ-centered curriculum and we really do love to learn! One of my prayers for homeschooling was that  our children would have fun while learning together. Sonlight helped answer that prayer by providing great Readers, Read-Alouds, History lessons, Science experiments and Bible memory verses set to music that we can enjoy together. On this beautiful summer day, they took some of their favorite books outside to enjoy with each other. In their fifth Sonlight year, Karli (5) is using Core A with Language Arts 1 and Samantha (8) is using Core D. They're studying Science A and E together.

Sonlight encompasses all the ideals I ever hoped to achieve spiritually and scholastically for my children and provides the tools for me to accomplish those goals. After homeschooling without joy for a decade, I was at a dead end. I approached a Sonlight mom for advice and made the switch. Last year we enjoyed our best school year ever and now own six full Cores! Not only was our school journey transformed, but our lives also, as we began to function better as a family.
