"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.

"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!"

Michelle M of Louisville, KY writes: "As a former private school teacher, I like how Sonlight's lessons are laid out for you. It saves so much time! I hoped to put together my own curriculum before having children but the amount of time and energy it takes to research and explore the subjects won't allow me to now. Finding Sonlight was a relief because they have already put the time and energy into the research. Now, I am freed up to engage my children and teach them!"
