"I'm heading off to college for the first time and can't help but feel a little jealous of my siblings, because they'll be doing Sonlight again this year," writes Kailey H of Marshfield, WI. "My family has loved learning so much since we started using Sonlight. History became my favorite subject, and I consumed all the books in each Core. I'm grateful for the in-depth Student Guides that forced me to think critically and caused me to formulate my own values. I feel well-prepared, and the thought of writing a college-level essay doesn't frighten me. I know I have the tools to be successful. Pictured are siblings Luke (15, Core 200), Abigail (13, Core H), Hope (10, Core G), and Mark (8, Core D).

"I was so excited when I browsed my first Sonlight catalog and saw they included Handwriting Without Tears," writes Melissa N of Chittenango, NY. "I was already working with Handwriting Without Tears when our first Sonlight materials arrived and found integrating the Sonlight Language Arts for Grade K Readers program into what we were already doing an easy transition. Thank you Sonlight for recognizing that every child is different and for giving parents a variety of options to choose from!" Here, Sawyer (5) and Coen (3) work with the Handwriting Without Tears manipulatives in their second year of Sonlight.

Sonlight united our family's hearts through the love for learning and experiencing God's heart for the nations. In the past three years the Lord took us on the journey of engaging our hearts with His heart for the people groups. Sonlight has played a pivotal part in this journey through the outstanding material and books. It is impossible not to experience God's heart for the different people groups as they come alive through the stories and pictures of the beautiful Sonlight books! When the V family went to southeastern Africa on a mission trip, they walked in the footsteps of David Livingstone and recognized many places and people groups from Cores F and H. In their third year of Sonlight, Tanya (13) is using Core H as Stefan (11) studies Core G.
