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.

"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.

"Sonlight makes school so easy for Mom," writes Tracy R of Hillsboro, MO. "All the planning is already done for me! They keep school interesting for my boys with a variety of well-chosen books that make history, science, and even math exciting!"

The R's have been Sonlighting for three years.
