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.

Thank you, Sonlight, for such lovely books! I have complete trust in the Core selections, knowing my kids will be absorbed and stimulated. I can relax, knowing I will have plenty of help from the well-prepared notes, to discuss, with grace, any difficult issues they may encounter. Additionally, one of the best things about Sonlight's Science program is the interest it inspires in the real world. Our whole family is enjoying this journey of discovery by taking a day each week to explore a local nature reserve. I'm amazed at how this consolidates concepts we've just learned about. Here, Evie (7, Core B) and Corban (4, P3/4) enthusiastically explore a marsh.

I have a friend who uses another curriculum, and she is always stressed out about time. Sonlight is different. I feel free to teach my children using their learning styles and my teaching style. The Instructor's Guides are great – I know exactly what to do each day. We can take time off if needed for spontaneity or vacation or whatever. The single BEST thing about Sonlight is all the wonderful books. Here, superhero Maximus (6) reads his morning devotions.
