Before I switched to Sonlight, I was a stressed-out mom. Especially in the area of science. Sonlight makes it so easy. The IGs lay things out for me and explain them so well that it's easy to follow along and the year flies by. The kids enjoy the Activity Sheets, and they absolutely love watching the experiment DVD and doing the hands-on activities. I like that there are always extra activity suggestions to enhance their learning. Sonlight has allowed me to spend more time enjoying the homeschool experience. Thank you! Here, Annah (5), Micah (10) and Jonah (9) identify the types of rocks they collected. The B family is studying Core B+C and Science C in their first year with Sonlight.

If it weren't for the Sonlight Science Box, experiments might NEVER happen at our house. I confess this is NOT my forte, but between watching Justin on the DVD and the kids clamoring, 'Please, may we try it?!' we actually do manage to squeeze in some hands-on activities in this Type A mom's kitchen! I have to admit it's still not my favorite part of homeschooling, but knowing that my children are learning more about God's world is worth the mess and the effort. Here, little sister Kenna (3) looks on while Arden (6) and Charis (9) create a thermometer during a Science C experiment. The five children of the J family just finished Core C in their fourth year of Sonlight.

The Sonlight Cores were igniting a love for learning in my girls, so we decided to give Sonlight Science a try. When my older girls were smaller, we often overlooked science. But since [starting Sonlight Science], science is a subject that gets done. As soon as any of the children are reading comfortably, I find them independently poring over their engaging science books. The supply kits and the Discover and Do DVD (a favorite even of our 4-year-old) allow us regular lab work with little effort to get everything together. And my high schoolers have everything they need – from weekly schedules to chemicals to microscopes! Here, Marco (4), Danielle (7), Miguel (9), Camilla (13) and Beatrice (15) study Science in the family's tenth year of Sonlight.
