I’m a box curriculum kind of gal. I mean, I don’t knock those who don’t use one, I just don’t trust myself to stay on task, on time, or teach the best without it. 

My husband tells me I’m like a squirrel all the time because I go from one thing to another- most of the time without finishing the first thing- but it’s just my nature. And I don’t want to take that chance when it comes to my children’s education. 

For the sake of clarification, when I say box curriculum, I don’t necessarily mean a single curriculum from one company. However, I do mean more of an open and go approach that has some sort of manual. Even if you are grabbing curriculum from a number of companies. 

We started with a very well-known boxed Christian curriculum. And it just wasn’t a good fit for us. After two years, I knew we needed change. And that’s when I happened upon Sonlight homeschooling curriculum

I was a little leery of switching to a new curriculum that I hadn’t heard much about (in my circle), but I loved their approach, and I knew my littles would too. 

We jumped onto the Sonlight bandwagon and went all in! And honestly, I’m so impressed.

With multiple kids, homeschooling can definitely become overwhelming very quickly. But with the Sonlight homeschool program, you can homeschool multiple children with ease! 

For the most part, if your children are within a few years of each other, they can learn from the same curriculum. There are some core subjects that you may have to adjust based upon your children’s specific knowledge and understanding, but for the most part, learning is a family experience!

“Each complete Sonlight® All-Subjects Package and History / Bible / Literature package comes with our Love to Learn, Love to Teach™ Guarantee. Take a full year to use half (18 weeks) of the program.

At any point during those eighteen weeks, if you decide Sonlight isn’t a good fit, ship it back to us and we’ll return your money. This guarantee also applies to anything you purchased at the same time as a complete All-Subjects Package or History / Bible / Literature package, such as Math and Science.”

So not only will you be able to trade in your current curriculum for a discount to try Sonlight, but you also have the option to try it without a full commitment! 

Is there any other company that offers this?!

5. Free Samples & Placement Tests

Committing to a new curriculum can be an extremely daunting task. Depending on how the program is set up, you may have to adjust to make it fit your needs. Sonlight makes that adjustment easy.

Simply head to their website and download some free curriculum samples to see it all for yourself. They even offer a Scope and Sequence Printable for you to see what your students will be learning and how their curriculum measures up. 

If you’re still questioning whether you’ve made the right decision, have your students take Sonlight’s placement tests. This is a great way to see where they align compared to your grade options!

6. Outstanding Customer Service

Moving from our previous curriculum of just choosing a specific grade for each child and having different books for each, I was a little confused with the setup of the Sonlight homeschooling program.

Not only did I not understand how I would be teaching all the kids in a family setting, I also didn’t understand how or what to order.

Thankfully, Sonlight’s customer service is probably some of the best I’ve ever come across- and I truly mean that. I have yet to be disappointed with this program.

They have a whole team of advisors that help explain the curriculum, help you choose a whole package or individual subjects, and answer any questions you have. 

They made the switch, and all the choices, extremely easy. And, now that I’m a Sonlighter myself, I also have access to these advisors for support and encouragement all year long!

7. Sonlight Connections

8. Complete Curriculum

I talked before about loving a box curriculum, but sometimes the whole package doesn’t come from one place. Sometimes it’s an eclectic approach that works for your family. 

However, when I dove in with Sonlight, I went in headfirst and didn’t turn back. I went with everything they had to offer and I’m so happy with it. The complete curriculum that they offer is a refreshing change for our family!

9. Reading Based Curriculum

My kids are readers, they just love books. So Sonlight’s reading-based curriculum was an easy addition to our lifestyle.

Reading books helps to develop language skills, critical thinking, comprehension, confidence, memory, and so much more. It’s truly evident that this curriculum is a winner for us! 

Even if your kids don’t love books, don’t give up on Sonlight. Reading is an important part of each person’s life and it’s never too late to instill a love for reading into a child!

Even though this is a box curriculum, Sonlight is not a school at home approach. This is a family learning, reading, and leans more toward unschooling with its lack of consumables approach.
