"Sonlight does a great job of encouraging my children to have a firm foundation in Christ and to seek knowledge and wisdom. The curriculum has helped develop their heart for serving Christ and sharing God's love. We love the missionary stories and the time learning from the Bible together. The history is so full and rich, and what we're learning has helped all of us better understand why people believe and do what they do today. Living books really do help our children understand a time period and develop their own writing skills … no comparison to dry textbook education! I love that their heroes are men and women of faith, not some here-today-gone-tomorrow pop star." In their seventh year of Sonlight, Samantha (10, Level F), Karlie (7, Level B) and Brandon (4, Pre-Kindergarten) read their Bibles at a favorite outdoor spot. – Sarah R of Earlham, IA

"Sonlight's comprehensive nature allows us to spend less time worrying and more time wondering. Studying together, we have more time to explore God's creation and have natural conversations about history, geography, science and life. Our children are constantly engaged in literature, and we see them becoming children after God's own heart. I know that each of them will be prepared for whatever comes their way. Sonlight's vast offering of resources never fails to meet our needs. We always know we're getting the highest-quality, Christ-centered educational materials for our family." In their fifth year of Sonlight, Liliana (10, Level F), Leila (7, Level C), Amelia (5, Level A) and William (3) relax with their parents as they encounter ocean creatures with a Sonlight Science book. – Ramona W of Hattiesburg, MS

Thanks so much for saving our homeschooling experience! We have been homeschooling our oldest from the beginning, but it seemed to get harder each year. We were using a popular workbook-based curriculum for 3 years and then switched, out of desperation, to a computer-based program. But all we got was cries of 'I hate school!!' I was at my wits end when a friend recommended Sonlight. We got Core D and slowly I noticed he wasn't upset at the mention of school time. By the time we finished the year, he was not complaining at all. A few years after we'd started Sonlight, he said, 'Mom, don't tell anyone, but I actually like school now. I kind of hate to have to stop for the weekends.' That was music to my ears. Here, middle son, Eli (5), gives a sprawling hug to his new Core A books. The D family is now in their fourth year of Sonlight.
