Sonlight has exposed our kids to wonderful literature, unique perspectives, and at all times, the highest standards. I appreciate Sonlight's flexibility. I work full time and love how I can tailor the schedule to suit our lifestyle. We spent the past year studying British history and literature in preparation for a trip to Great Britain.  Here, Mom, Caroline (15) and Meredith (13) read from The Ravenmaster's Secret outside the Tower of London. The family has been studying with Sonlight for 8 years.  

"Sonlight offers many captivating and delightful books to its programs that keep the attention of my boys," writes Lisa W of Minnesota City, MN. "After the long, cold winters in Minnesota, we like to read outside in the spring. Along with our dogs, Misty and Sierra, and friendly chicken, Vanilla, my teenage boys still enjoy Read-Aloud time with Mom. The book I'm reading, God's Smuggler, is especially dear to my heart, as I served on an overseas mission trip in college to China with Open Doors Ministry. I feel privileged to share this personal experience with my boys as I read the story of Brother Andrew, who started Open Doors. Although homeschooling has its challenges, I cherish the time I get to spend with my boys, and Sonlight helps make that possible!"

Here, Joshua (13), Josiah (16) and  Lisa read God's Smuggler on the deck outside. They are using HBL H and 200 in their 11th year Sonlighting.

Your curriculum has opened our eyes to the world and broadened our compassion for those in other cultures. The writing projects have been an excellent tool to start discussions about life with our children. Thank you for helping us instill the 'love to learn' mentality in our children! Here, Nathan (13) and Alan (15) tell friends Katelyn (15) and Jennifer (13) about the books they read this past year. The boys generated so much enthusiasm for the Core that Katelyn (who is using Core 300) told her parents she wants to read their Core 100 books even though they're not part of her assigned reading. The S family is using Core 100 in their eighth year of Sonlight, as their friends use Cores H and 300 in their third year of Sonlight.
