My girls actually learned more in the first month [of Sonlight] than they had the whole year before! Sonlight was recommended by a homeschooling mom who had four sons. I looked it over, and because of the lesson planning already being done for you, I thought it was the answer for having a newborn in our house. I thought we'd just 'try it out' for one year to see how it went. Well, when the books came, we fell in love! The W family has now used Sonlight for four years. Isabella (11) and Amarissa (9) are using Core E as siblings (not pictured) Arlin (4) and Ellianna (2) expore the Preschool Multi-Subject Package.  

Sonlight's instructor guide's give us the extra time to relax and read together.   I'm glad I chose sonlight for my 3rd grader's first year.  This year I will supplement it with another grammar  program.  And will use a different science & math for my 4th grader.  But Will continue to use Sonlights literature & history.  However, I was not happy with the Sonlight K readers & phonics program.  I found it more appropriate for a preschool program than Kindergarten.  My son learned the alphabet sounds but the program lacked strenght in teaching words & blends.  Thanks Sonlight for all your amazing curriculum!

"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
