Nine years later, I see my kids loving to learn on their own and knowing HOW to do that! When I first learned about Sonlight, I thought, 'Yes! This is what I've been looking for!' The two areas that stand out most are: 1) They know how to write and express themselves well, and 2) They understand history and how it all fits together in a way that I never learned. Where Readers are concerned, Angela (12, Core F) loves finding herself up a tree on a sunny day.  

As soon as I saw Sonlight's Instructor's Guides and what awesome books we'd enjoy reading together, I didn't have to look further. My husband and I are teachers by training, so we understand the time necessary for good planning and a successful learning experience. As a mother, I also recognize that I don't have that kind of time anymore. I want to spend my days with my family, not planning for the next school day. Sonlight provides great books, incredibly organized and detailed lesson plans, the freedom to do what works best for our family, and the opportunity to teach our Christian faith. Mom and Dad here share the Good News with Lucas (5, Core A, Science A) and Carlos (2).

We had no idea there was a homeschool curriculum that fit what we like to do – read good books and do hands-on science to explore God's world! Sonlight was exactly what we had been doing naturally Joseph's whole life. And it provided all the necessary supplies in one place! Hannah (3), who will begin P3/4, loves to "do school" with big brother Joseph (10), who will start Core and Science E. The family is in their third Sonlight year.
