About this Online Event
At Sonlight, we equip parents in nurturing children who not only develop a love for learning and faith but we are often reminded in November to focus on thankfulness. How do you weave these values into your homeschool routine and deliberately carve out moments to express appreciation for blessings? We're here to assist! In this month’s Homeschool Helps & Hacks, we’ll offer valuable insights and strategies to help prioritize character development and gratitude anytime.
Bring your questions and connect with us on Thursday, November 16, at 1:00 p.m. Mountain Time.

Presenters
Sunny Raybern
Community & Social Media Manager
Sunny has loved books for as long as she can remember. Her own parents discovered Sonlight at a convention and knew the literature and history focus would be perfect for her. She never planned to homeschool her own children past pre-k, but when her daughter learned to read, she was hooked. She has educated both of her children entirely with Sonlight. In her spare time, Sunny enjoys reading (of course), musicals, hiking, and being in or near water.

She has been homeschooling since 2002 when her oldest child began pre-k with Sonlight. Amber has five children – one attending graduate school, two in college, one in high school, and one in 6th grade. Because of her husband's graduate schooling and employment, she has had the opportunity to homeschool in four different states.
