"Sonlight makes it easy to wake up and homeschool. They do all of the prep work for me. As much as I'd love to spend hours thinking about how I'll teach my kids, it doesn't often happen. I'm their Mom, too, and wife to my husband. I have other responsibilities and I want to do all of these well. I love the book choices, and how Sonlight suggests how many pages a day to read. It's so simple!" In the summer before their sixth Sonlight year, the family went on a mission trip to Uganda. This year, Joy (16) will study Level 500, while Ayden (14), Effy (12) and Jayken (10) study Level W together. – Melissa W of Brownwood, TX

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.

"I will never cease to praise Sonlight's easy-to-use Instructor's Guides," writes Tanya S of Austin, TX. "With an entire year of lesson plans conveniently organized and completed for me, the stress of preparation is completely eliminated, allowing more time to nurture my kids' blossoming passions." In their fifth year of Sonlight, Naomi (9) and Keira (7) dive into Sonlight levels D and B.
