Sonlight has ignited my children's passion for learning. In this photo, Ciera was very excited to get her middle school Summer Readers. In their first year with Sonlight, Ciera (12) and siblings Christian (11) Jayson (7) and Anya (5) are studying Cores A and G.  

This is a daily scene in our home – children and their dad snuggled up on the sofa enjoying a Sonlight book together. These precious family times are what I love most about homeschooling. Our whole family loves learning together with Sonlight – the wonderful books have made doing school an exciting adventure. I often find my children reading their Sonlight books out of school time, they enjoy them so much. Not only are the books fantastic, but the schedules and Instructor's Guides are invaluable. John and Samuel (both age 8) and Caleb (6) share Core C as Keren dives into P3/4 this year. The L family has used Sonlight from the start. 

We have seen the truth of Sonlight's claim that children learn history better when they learn it in the form of a story. Because of Sonlight's Readers and Read-Alouds, our kids have a better grasp and wider knowledge base of historical events at the end of middle school than their parents did at the end of college (due to our [non-Sonlight] textbook-style memorization of facts – facts that were soon forgotten or muddled because they weren't part of a story). Vashti (14) mentioned that some of her friends hate studying history. She said, 'If only they could learn history the Sonlight way, they'd love it like I do!' In her eigthth year of Sonlight, Vashti devours a biography from Core H that brings the Iron Curtain era to life.
