We love Sonlight because it teaches our children to think critically about what they are learning. It challenges them to carefully consider the worldview that the media and many of their friends hold. They are learning that the biblical worldview is supported by science (among other subjects) and they are learning how to defend their faith. Sonlight also breaks us free from the 'school at home' mindset by allowing a more relaxed learning environment and encouraging discussion rather than completing lots of worksheets. Thanks Sonlight! Here, twelve-year-old Mackenzie reads from Science G in her third year of Sonlight.

"We've been a Sonlight family for most of the past 15 years," writes Melissa C of Wray, CO. "It was the first curriculum we ever researched and, after looking into dozens of others (and using some of them), the one we came back to. I love that the Instructor's Guide does all the planning for me. Our bookworm kids devour the Readers, and even our kids who didn't enjoy reading have been captivated by the literature. Read-Aloud time is, hands down, our favorite part of the day! It's like pulling old friends off the shelf as we read and reread them to our five kids." Eloise (13, HBL W) celebrates the end of the year with her finished stack of books!

"With Sonlight, we can learn anywhere!" says Rachel M of Ballston Spa, NY. "My kids always bring their books on trips, and we love how easy it is to grab everything and go. Evelyn (12) and Luke (9) used Sonlight for two years before we put them in a private school. We were worried that they would be behind, but they were ahead of the rest of the class! After just a few weeks, they were begging to come back to Sonlight, and now we're here to stay!" Pictured, Luke, Rachel, and Evelyn enjoy Favorite Poems Old and New together.
