Great gifts to help celebrate the Good News


Dear Sonlight,

What’s the best news you’ve ever received? Maybe you learned that you and your spouse were going to be parents, that your sick loved one would recover or that your friend was coming home safely from war. This time of year, we prepare to celebrate the Good News for all people and greatest gift of all – Jesus’ birth!  

An Advent(ure) book trio brings the Christmas story to life

As you know, Advent is the four-week period leading up to Christmas. It’s a time when many believers commemorate Christ’s first arrival and anticipate his return. This year, Advent season starts on Dec. 1. In keeping with Sonlight’s tradition of literature-rich learning, we’ve put together a three-book bundle to complement your family’s Advent activities.

Jotham’s Journey, Bartholomew’s Passage and Tabitha’s Travels recount the tales of three young people whose lives in some way intersect that of the Christ child. Each story stands alone, though your children will likely enjoy the set for several Advent seasons. A great gift idea for your historical fiction–loving friends, too. Light the Advent candles and prepare to be spellbound …

Check out additional Christmas classics for even more good reads to take you through the New Year and beyond.

Gather the family ’round and get your game(s) on

Whether you’re spending the holiday season in Omaha or Osaka, who doesn’t love a little fun and games, and a good book, too? How about a book + game combo that takes you on a journey to 10 days in Africa, the Americas or Europe? If your family prefers puzzles, check out our selection that will give you an out-of this world (or at least out-of-the-country) educational experience.

 

These are the champions, my friends

History’s champions, that is: King Solomon, Alexander the Great, our Founding Fathers, Galileo, the Renaissance Masters and many many more. Pop in a CD and be captivated by the storytelling magic of Jim Weiss as you drive over the river and through the woods to Grandmother’s house.

Need something to entertain your clan while you bake cookies? For an animated experience that answers the question, Why Do We Call It Christmas?, check out DVDs by Veggie Tales® creator Phil Vischer.  If you want to Veg out a little longer, snuggle up together on the couch and watch the laugh-and-learn adventures of Buck Denver and friends in What’s in the Bible, Vol. 1 & 2.

Wanna be a Piano Wizard?

If one of your bunch has been pleading to play the piano, we’ve got the best teacher in the house. Who knew that you could learn to read music and grasp theory by playing a video game? And because we’re feeling extra Christmas-y, we’ll even throw in a FREE keyboard!

Fine print that’s really fine

Here’s some more good news for all people:

  • Order by Dec. 11 to ensure FedEx delivery by Christmas.
  • Your $30 order receives FREE Jerusalem Cross, while supplies last.
  • Spend $75 and your order ships FREE. (Of course, all Core and Heirloom Club Member orders ship FREE, every season of the year!)

To all our friends around the globe, from our Colorado home to yours – wherever you may be – Merry Christmas. If we can help you in any way, this season and beyond, please don’t hesitate to contact the Sonlight team.

Let the Advent(ure) begin!
