"I was initially unsure about homeschooling, but Sonlight's Instructor's Guide makes it so easy for me to plan our lessons and not worry about missing something important. I've been surprised by how easy it is to include both boys (ages 6 and 4) in our Core studies. What first excited us about Sonlight was its international focus. We love how the Core combines maps, missionary stories, and books with a range of cultures and races to show our children the beauty and importance of the world beyond their small town. Jeremiah (6) and Nathaniel (4) love to use their Markable Map (#MAP) to find the places they learn about in Core B." – Sara R, La Fayette, GA

Sonlight's diverse and exceptional books have brought many far-off places right into our home, causing my daughter's imagination and creativity to come alive. I thought history was boring, until we started Sonlight; now it's our favorite subject. Using Sonlight makes us want to go out and explore the world. The books paint such a clear picture in our minds that everywhere we go becomes an educational experience. Plus, the Instructor's Guides are easy to follow, giving us more time for field trips and to just enjoy learning together. In her fifth Sonlight year, Valerie (7, Core B) likes to dress up when inspired by a favorite book.

The IGs have been a huge timesaver. What a privilege to relax with my coffee while perusing my Sonlight IG with the plans all laid out for the day! I love having the Readers, Read-Alouds and History books all brought together from the same time periods. I also love having summers free to spend time with my kids away from our books. With the IGs, my workload is so much lighter. You take a load off my mind, Sonlight! Now in their sixth Sonlight year, Gwen and her five children are using Cores A and F.
