Sonlight's lesson plans, study guides and teacher helps saved our homeschool. After our first year of patchworking together a curriculum, my husband said, 'If this is what homeschooling will require of you, we won't be continuing!' Then a friend introduced us to Sonlight while we were on furlough from the mission field and we fell in love with it. No more patchwork – Sonlight saved my sanity! Three high school graduates later (with three more to go), we're STILL loving Sonlight. In the family's twelfth year of Sonlight study, Deborah (13, Core G) enjoys a good read in the strawberry patch.

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).

What a blessing my Instructor's Guide is. I have complete confidence that I'm teaching what needs to be taught throughout the year. When people have asked me about homeschooling and how I know my children are learning what they need to, I've whipped out my IG and they've been blown away. Most comment that with a tool like that, they'd be able to homeschool too! Thanks to the confidence I get using an established program like Sonlight, my boys are thriving and my husband and I couldn't be happier! In their first year of homeschooling using the 4th Grade Full-Grade program, Brooks (2), Jase (7), and Carter (9) climb a tree with Dad to read a short story.
