With Ethan turning five this year, I knew I needed to figure out what to do about schooling him. God placed it in my heart to home school my kids, but I had no idea where to begin. After spending months on the internet searching for homeschooling curriculum and material, it was clear to me that Sonlight was the best. The faith-based curriculum, the organized and easy to follow instructor guides, the way everything was laid out- amazed me. No one in my family and no one I knew had ever home-schooled their children, but I was so excited and eager to begin. My kids love learning, and are as pleased with Sonlight as my husband and I are. We are studying the kindergarten multisubject package with our five and a half year old son, Ethan, and doing preschool with our three and half year old daughter, Naomi. They love everything- the books, math materials, history, and reading the Bible. Ethan was especially drawn to the maps, asking us to point out where everyone he knew could be located. We were also able to show him Ukraine, the country his father and I were born in, and were presented with great opportunity to explain to him more about our heritage. He was thrilled when we got him a globe, wanting to encourage his interest. My husband and I love how all the material helps our family bond and grow together. We are so thankful for Sonlight and for the opportunity to educate our kids with confidence.

Sonlight is not just our curriculum, it's our connection as a family. This was our first year with Sonlight, and let me just say, we LOVE it! Since our children are close in age, it has been such a blessing to combine them into the same Core. It has been so much fun to watch the close bond develop between them over the past year. With quality pieces of literature, the stories come to life! These shared experiences have developed a love of learning that will last a lifetime. And for that, my heart is thankful. Here, they share a favorite book (The Lion Storyteller Bedtime Book, from P4/5) at a favorite park. What better way to spend a summer evening?

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.
