"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

"I love Sonlight's heart for missions and the opportunities they've provided to get involved in learning and giving towards the spread of the gospel worldwide," writes Lois B of Alberta, Canada. "Not only do we pray daily in our school curriculum for people groups, but now we have a generous jar and are being reminded of the main worldviews and how we can share the love of Jesus with them. Thanks, Sonlight, for a curriculum that looks outward instead of inward and is such a help in raising our children in the way they should go!"

"The kids always look forward to Box Day, but as a Sonlight mom, I'm most excited for Catalog Day!" writes Michelle S of College Station, TX. "We originally decided to homeschool to strengthen the bonds between our kids. After 5 years, we are so grateful to have kids who enjoy learning together. We are so glad we chose Sonlight to foster that closeness!" Pictured, Michelle researches what next year with Sonlight will bring.
