Sonlight curriculum creates an exciting way for our family to learn. Our three boys are excited to demonstrate their skills as they eagerly connect what they learn with everyday experiences. Sonlight is a blessing because it keeps our entire family organized, enriched and hungry for knowledge. We love that it is a Christian curriculum specializing in individual packages. The resources and materials absolutely satisfy our needs and provide us with the tools to successfully help our children learn and grow. In their fourth Sonlight year, Cole (7), Qwest (6) and Quade (4) are using Cores P4/5, A and B. Here, they explore a close-to-home story with Dad.

Sonlight takes learning to a whole new level by combining story-telling, drama and intimate student-teacher interaction instead of just memorizing boring facts. The family lives on a rural island in the Andaman Sea off southern Thailand, where they work among the Moken Sea Gypsies. With Sonlight, we're free from the bounds of the traditional classroom. Since Denalyn and Alyssa love acting and singing, we often encourage them to sing or act out various roles from the many stories they read. The Moken children love to join in our homeschooling sessions. Our two girls have been using the curriculum for two years now and absolutely love it! Denalyn is on Core F and Alyssa is working through Core B. Here, Cally, Alyssa (7) and friends Chanap and Phen cheer on Denalyn (11) as she delivers her best impersonation of the famous Gettysburg address.

We love the ministry/spiritual emphasis Sonlight puts in its programs. The whole atmosphere in our home has changed dramatically! More than seven years ago, I felt led to quit a great job to be a stay-at-home mom. This curriculum plays such an important role. I especially love overhearing them during play, using names of the characters and parts of the world we've studied. Family members who were skeptical about homeschooling, which is so unusual in our country, are amazed at their skills and knowledge. I can't say enough about how much we love and believe in Sonlight! After just one year of Sonlight, Aline (6), Aslan (3) and Grace (7), along with Mom, are addicted to literature!
