"I wasn't familiar with Sonlight until a fellow homeschool mom shared how much easier my life could be. We started last year and absolutely love being able to study together, particularly reading as a family. We chose Sonlight F this year because it appeals to our missions mindset, and the Choose Your Own Adventure has been delightful. With Sonlight, my life is much easier, and our school day has shortened considerably!" Now in their second Sonlight year, Ezekiel (13), Joshua (12), Gary (10) and Samuel (9) are pictured having fun with ink, grindstone and rice paper, as they explore Chinese writing." – Renee C of Thornton, CO

I love the simply laid out lesson plans, the excellent and diverse choices of literature, and the flexibility Sonlight offers our family. Our oldest thoroughly enjoyed the P4/5 Core last year. This year it couldn't have worked out more perfectly that we were learning about ancient Greece and how the Olympics started, just as the 2012 games were beginning. I look forward to re-reading the wonderful stories with our other children when it's time to begin their schooling. We anticipate a rich home education with Sonlight for years to come! Now in their second Sonlight year, Mark and Beth share a lighthearted llama read with Reese (5), who is studying Core A, Lincoln (3) and Maddox (11 months). 

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.
