We all love Sonlight for so many reasons, but one of the main reasons is that our kids have time to be KIDS! I'm so thankful that with the carefully laid-out schedule and quality Christ-based education, we can get a solid education and still have time for unstructured, creative play. Not only do they have time for academics, but they also have time to explore God's creation firsthand, not just in a book between overscheduled activities. Here, Steven (7, Core B) and Megan (4, Core A) do just that!

I prayed for a curriculum that was God-centered, economical and mom-friendly. Sonlight has given me the ability to teach my five children. Even in our busy and sometimes-chaotic days, we're always able to find a moment to share an inspirational story and bond as a family. My children get up in the morning excited about their schoolwork and have a passion for learning that's contageous. I love that I can just open a binder [Instructor's Guide] and I know what we have to do. God cares about the education of my children and has used Sonlight to achieve this. Now in their third Sonlight year, Faith (4), Tamar (6) and Natalie (6), pictured with visiting cousins, were studying Core B at the time of this outing.

It truly was a miracle when I took my son with Asperger syndrome out of public school and began homeschooling [with Sonlight. The books are captivating. The Instructors Guides are so easy to use and helpful. Everything you need is right there, ready to go. The Sonlight experience is a warm bonding time with parents and siblings. I still remember the feeling of being rescued and being placed in a wonderland.
