We weren’t planning to purchase an actual curriculum from any company until Older Daughter was entering 1st grade. However, I asked my husband to look at the Sonlight website one evening years ago, and that was all it took. My husband, a true bibliophile, decided that night that we should order P3/4 (Sonlight’s early preschool level), and we became Sonlighters!
Here are 6 reasons why we chose Sonlight homeschool curriculum:
- Our children are getting a great education and loving it…at least most of the time! Sonlight is a literature-based curriculum, so we read tons of great books out loud together. The kids devour plenty of books on their own, too. We stay away from boring textbooks and really engage in what we’re learning.
- That time spent reading together on the couch is creating some great memories–we learn so much about each other as we discuss the events, ideas, and characters we discover.
- With the Instructor’s Guides Sonlight provides, we can just open up the guide and do school every day, without me spending much time planning. That gives us even more time to hang out…and keep up with the laundry.
- Sonlight prepares our kids to engage with the world around them. We study lots of different cultures and don’t just focus on U.S. history. Our kids know that not everyone is like us, and they’re learning to care about those around them with an intelligent and Christ-centered love.
- Sonlight offers the best risk-free offer of anyone. You can take a whole year to use 18-weeks of a curriculum package or Instructor’s Guide. If you don’t love it, send it all back (used books and all) and receive a full refund of every penny you paid.
- We get all the help we need from Sonlight’s online forums, their curriculum advisors (who can help us choose which products will fit our family best), and their customer relations team. Just yesterday, I had a question about something in one of the Instructor’s Guides. I started a live chat with Sonlight’s Customer Relations team, and within minutes, my question was answered!
I should also mention that on top of that, Sonlight has a Rewards Program I enjoy. If you decide to purchase from Sonlight, use this Sonlight Discount Link to register an account on their site, and you’ll get $5 off your first order ($50 or more).
We hope to use Sonlight all the way through our girls’ education!
