Here, Sienna (8) and Hayden (10) study HBL C with their mom outside. Leila says "This photo really captures so much of what we love about homeschooling: the freedom to enjoy the outdoors, quality (and life-changing) books to read together and the gift of more time with our children during their formative years. I love the bond that homeschooling provides us." 

"Thanks to Sonlight our daughters have developed a keen interest in stories and poems," writes Mariska W of Malawi. "We have a precious, daily bedtime routine in which we snuggle together in our cozy reading corner for some bedtime stories and Naomi and Abigail choose a poem to recite." Here, Naomi (4) eagerly works on Developing the Early Learner from Sonlight's Pre-Kindergarten program.

The Teacher's Guides and the well-chosen classical books are the key to Sonlight's success. I also love how they recommended other resources, like Explode the Code and Handwriting Without Tears, which work hand-in-hand with the curriculum. With Sonlight, I'm able to work with my kids on a daily basis on a continuum of excellent learning. I see my children's world expanding and it makes me excited to be their teacher. For the first time, I feel confident and comfortable with my decision to home educate. My kids finally enjoy homeschooling and I absolutely love teaching. In their third Sonlight year, John-Paul and Emelie (9 and 8, Core B+C) take their Math outdoors.
