Heartland Cyclone 4006 | Toy Hauler Renovation
Hey guys! It's long overdue but I’m excited to share with you the renovations we made in our toy hauler aka our "kid hauler." We didn’t make any changes immediately. One, we waited for our camper to have warranty work for so long that by the time we got it back we had to get moving! But also, we wanted some time to live in the camper to see what changes we thought would benefit us the most. Most of the changes have been practical to fit our family. It is by no means an instagram worthy toy hauler renovation complete with fresh paint and cute decorations. We just needed it to be functional! So I hope you’ll take a watch to see the changes we made to make it work for our family!

Is there editing exercises?
The reason I’m asking where you got the book and where I can get the book is because I had seen it in a couple places and it was kind of pricey. One place wanted $22-$30 for a cloth bound version of it, and Amazon Wanted $18. I wonder if there’s a much cheaper deal or I can get this Bible or if Amazon is probably my best bet. I just need some advice.
Unlike other Bible, there was only this and a couple others that are my absolute favorites that I have in my Apple Books app. Actually more than a couple others there’s a few others that I like, but this child story Bible is starting to become my favorite one. The reason is because of what you said about it being faithful to the Bible. Was just wondering where would be a good place to find this Bible and print because my church should I go to uses the king James version, I am blind and autistic, and I am not able to understand, the Bible at the same level as an adult would. I love how it reads is one big story. And it’s like she’s having a conversation with you in some parts of the book. While she’s telling the story. Their narration on the audiobook is beautiful. Just wish I could find a print book to use to follow along with the scripture when the pastor reads it during church sermons at my work. I sing and play piano for church and I get paid for it as a private contractor. I also play bass guitar. I’ve tried a few other Bibles and print like the babies storybook Bible and timeless children’s stories from the beginners Bible and non-compared to the child story Bible. I love that the Bible, but in children’s form where it’s not chapter blah blah blah verse blah blah blah. It’s just, broken down as one chapter without the chapter of this and verse, that which is the confusing format of the regular Bible. I loved the new Testament of the new American regular Bible for adults, but there were some concepts. I was not able to understand at that level so, that’s why I went back to using a children’s Bible in the first place. It would be nice to have a Bible that quotes the same Bible version that the rest of the people at my church/workplace uses. The questions that I have because I’m trying to look for where to find a decent price for a print copy. Where is a good place I could find a print copy of this book? Where did you find this book?
Would any of this be appropriate for kindergarten? Wasnt sure if its worthwhile or pushing off until 1st grade. Great video!
LOVE your shirt! Question I am wanting to use this as home school program and be the teacher but have other students who will have their individual licenses . what do I need to buy as the "instructor" and how do I connect the individual licensed kids????
hi, how long are the videos? love your videos btw!
I am new to homeschooling two young boys. Thank you so much for this. I loved all the help.
Hello, How long are the videos? I am interested in this for my 6th grader. 😊
Thank you so much for making this video. I was about to purchase Algebra 1/2 for my daughter, but this video has persuaded me to get the 8/7 instead! 8/7 will be a much better fit! Thanks!!
Do you have to print anything or when you buy it they send you all the papers needed?
I like this video thank you and I also have a similar passport book to collect the cancellation stamps because they are a nice keepsake
I noticed you had a cancellation with no sticker/stamp next to it. Is it hard to find the sticker/stamp?
Love your shirt do you remember where you got it
I love this! So many fun ideas!!
How to get it in India
Teach your kids to think, question and learn without being indoctrinated. I see the wide divide in the comments. They either love it or they are hate filled democrats.
This is such a helpful post! Thank you from a fellow ohio mom. :)
Update please!
This video was so helpful. Thank you!!
This was very helpful!
Have you ran into a lot of problems with this camper 4006 like everyone says on reviews.?
I just ordered level B (part 2) for my daughter and this video has me excited about it!
So helpful, thank you. I really needed to hear from a mom who might suspect something mild was going on with spelling and how to gently chip away at it
Hi! New to your channel! Are there any assessments available within abeka in regards to language arts and phonics?
You also don't have to worry about a truant officer showing up at your door either. A lot of schools don't allow family vacations during the school year because of each state's mandatory school attendance laws.
How does it instruct you to memorize the poem? It looks like just one day has the poem written out. So what does it ask you to do to memorize it?
Great ideas!
Roughly how long is it taking him to complete an entire lesson, mixed practice and corrections? I’m curious to know if my kids are around the same or just overly taking their time.
My 4th grader has had it with this program. After the Marco Polo story he started crying about the constant summarizing. It was fun and easy in the beginning but i think it got too hard too fast. There is no variety. He is so bored and stressed over it. Ironically the next half of the program is what I think he will thrive in which is drawing from pictures. We decided to take a week off from SS and I found him other writing assignments with drawing, coloring, etc and he did so good. I honestly don’t know if we will do it next year. My son needs variety and creativity where he can write his own stories vs summarizing all the time. He did 2 assignments this week and blew me away with writing his own stories. I am also black and white and i have to finish what I start and stick to schedules so it’s been painful for me to have to find a detour in this program. That’s the benefit of homeschooling though and these videos help so much!!! Ps the SS videos are helpful because I don’t have to teach but they are too long and drag on. My son prefers to get to the point of he lesson because we spend too much time doing HW. My son spaces out during the virtual class and then it’s frustrating because he doesn’t know what to do or does it wrong. I personally think it’s a great program but it’s not for everyone and could use some improvement. Shorten the classes and add variety and not only summarizing. You can only summarize so much at age 9/10. Hope this helps someone I agree I didn’t learn to write until I was in my 30’s that’s why I personally think it’s too advanced and they expect too much too soon for a kid. It’s too much pressure.
This was a very thorough video. Thank you so much for doing this! I was going back and forth between these two books but now I feel confident that I can make a decision. Math 8/7 is what my child needs. Thanks again!
Not sure you have a more recent video on how you liked the switch but wondering how it went? We have a struggling speller and recently started spelling you see. i actually never thought about trying explode the code as a spelling resource.
How would you rate the noise of the a/c? Are they whisper quiet?
👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
I see you have the desk where the washer would go. Do you not have a washer? Do you find the laundromat cost effective?
In Classical Conversations Essentials years they did a lot of diagramming too. We both hate it. I never did it, and never needed it. Hoping this will help my 12 year old brush up on the more difficult concepts.
Awesome video! So many good ideas. We have already implemented the tension rods in between the happy jack rails. I am wondering where you got the folding round shower curtain rod? I would love to get one. Thanks!
Oh really cool. 😎
Thank you for sharing 🙏
Andrew pudwa would agree with the walk through you are giving learning from his teaching writing and style he talks about how beneficial it is to do just that
Hello, could you tell me the information for the curtain rod for the bathroom. Thank you so much 😊
Have you ever used the teacher disc
That’s awesome that’s what we do.. love it
Carpet backing is commonly made with a synthetic rubber derived from styrene and butadiene, both of which are respiratory irritants at low levels of exposure. Long-term exposure to high levels of styrene is associated with nerve damage, and long-term exposure to butadiene is associated with cancer and heart disease.
Carpet in any bedroom is the worth. Unhealthy. Carpets and rugs may trap pollutants and allergens like dust mites, pet dander, cockroach allergens, particle pollution, lead, mold spores, pesticides, dirt and dust. Toxic gases in the air can stick to small particles that settle into carpets.
Thank you for your information and approach to this. I wasn't completely sure where you stood on some issues, but that's fine concerning the religious aspects as you may have stated it. Nevertheless every review that I have gone over today concerning these Tuttle twins curriculum or books have been helpful. So thank you very much
What literature do you use? I'm trying CLE this year, but I'm not sure if i like it.
I just bought mine a couple of days ago. I have already stamped one upside down. I came up with this idea about putting a sticky note on the space that way if I make a mistake the first time I correct it, then take the sticky note off and put the correct stamp on.
Hi, thanks for your video. I was wondering how long it will take to finish up Level C. Is it for a year or for 6 months?
I really like Saxon so far because it’s no fluff. My only issue is that my daughter and myself are both really horrible at all the “mental math” 😬 neither of us can really do it without visualizing it on paper first
No science or is that a family class?
