No bland textbook can provide Sonlight moments like this!. Science Activities Vol. 2 and the accompanying Discover & Do DVD [from Science A] provided many hours of wonder, excitement and fun at our house this year. I am so grateful to Sonlight for helping us foster an enjoyment of Science through wonderful books, a well-organized IG, the ready-to-use supplies kit and hands-on activities. Jonathan (6) and Caroline (7) were so excited when their Science A experiment successfully created wind. They are now starting their third year of Sonlight with Core B and Science B.

Sonlight lessons are all planned out for me and they include all kinds of fun activities. This was our first year homeschooling. I've been terribly busy and sleep-deprived with a new baby and three young children. Using Sonlight's Science A program was the best decision I could have made. Although the program is laid out in a weekly schedule, I've found it easy to adjust according to our needs. Some weeks we do a bit each day. Other times we have a 'Science Day' and do a week's worth of lessons and activities all at once. I simply pick up where we left off. Here, Gideon (2), Miriam (5) and Tabitha (6) make "hot lava" while studying volcanoes.

This is my son Timothy, on our very first Box Day in 2010. The moment I opened the box and brought out the books, he started flipping through them and playing with the pattern blocks which came with his math set. We started school the very next day. We are now on our third year of home schooling, also our third with Sonlight, and the excitement of Box Day remains the same. (We are actually, as of this writing, awaiting our third core, Core B!) My son enjoys the books and activities, and I love seeing him having fun while learning. Even I have learned so much from Core A! More than once I've said, "This is fascinating! How come I wasn't fascinated like this when I was studying?"
