Sonlight's lesson plans, study guides and teacher helps saved our homeschool. After our first year of patchworking together a curriculum, my husband said, 'If this is what homeschooling will require of you, we won't be continuing!' Then a friend introduced us to Sonlight while we were on furlough from the mission field and we fell in love with it. No more patchwork – Sonlight saved my sanity! Three high school graduates later (with three more to go), we're STILL loving Sonlight. In the family's twelfth year of Sonlight study, Deborah (13, Core G) enjoys a good read in the strawberry patch.

Sonlight's grab-and-go Instructor's Guide makes it possible for us to homeschool. We live on a cattle ranch and homestead (produce much of our own food), so I wouldn't have time to design a curriculum. Sonlight has brought the world into our house. I love that my kids embrace diversity as a direct result of exposure to Sonlight books. They regularly impress people with the depth of their knowledge. They want to be explorers and adventurers, just like the ones we read about. On this day, Dalton (5, Core A) and Maddy (3, P3/4 Multi-Subject) explore the creek.

Sonlight has made it so easy to work with our schedule, which includes working around Dad's schedule. I love that we can take school with us and have quality family time, no matter when or where that happens to be. Choosing Sonlight as our curriculum has been one of the the best choices we've made. Everything is laid out for us in the fabulous Instructor Guides, which are so easy to follow. I love the literature-based learning and Sonlight Readers are a huge hit with my kids. On this gorgeous evening, they don't even mind reading on the boat. In the family's second Sonlight year, Noah (7), Carsyn (3) and Taylor (9) are finishing up Cores B and D.
