"I am so thankful that I can spend my time working with my children rather than planning lessons," says Amanda T of Port Matilda, PA. "If I had a curriculum that required a lot of extra time finding books or coordinating themed activities, I know I wouldn't be consistent and I would burn out." In addition to easy lesson planning, Amanda says she has seen a huge change in her children's relationship. In this photo, taken two years ago, Charlotte (now 10 and studying HBL F) leaves a sweet message for her sister Grace (now 6, HBL B). "We wanted to be able to place a priority on honoring God in our schooling. With Sonlight, I see our children spending time learning about the Lord and growing in love for one another." The T family has been Sonlighting for as long as they've homeschooled: three years.

Sonlight's Language Arts programs are so versatile. This year is the third time through Language Arts 1 for our family, and I have been able to tailor the program to meet the needs of each individual child. If one child needs more work with a certain concept, there are plenty of extra activities in the Instructor's Guide that I can choose from to reinforce that concept. But if they catch on quickly, I have the option of leaving out the extra activities. We also love Sonlight's choices for Readers. The books in Language Arts 1 are familiar favorites that the little ones often pull off the shelf for Mommy to read. Here, Katie (7) reads to Mom as Meghan (3) and Karson (2) eagerly join in for the story. 

"Our family absolutely loves Sonlight," writes Cassandra G of Lexington, KY. "We are finishing up History / Bible / Literature A and Science A, and every day they ask if we are doing a science experiment or video today. If not, they ask to re-watch one of the videos we have seen already! When I started looking into homeschooling I tried to piece it all together myself, but I wasn't happy with it. I wanted to spend time with my children learning, not planning. I can't thank Sonlight enough for putting together such wonderful curriculum. Now we can open and go wherever we are!"
