I’m a member of Master Lock’s Live Secure Safety Squad and have been compensated for my time in writing this post. My opinions are always my own.
It’s almost time to send our kids back to school!
I always have such mixed feelings about this time of year. I love to see my girls get excited for back to school shopping and getting organized for the new school year. But I hate to say goodbye to summer.
Also, I tend to feel a little sad seeing my girls get older and move on to the next grade of school.
I can’t believe my oldest Julia is going into grade 5 and my little Sophia will be starting grade 3.
My babies are seriously growing up too fast.
But even more shocking is that my twin sister Janice’s oldest boy is starting HIGH SCHOOL. Yikes. He’s going to have a locker for the first time!!!
Starting to use a locker at school is such a milestone.
If your kids are also old enough to use lockers, you can get awesome, secure and easy to use locks from Master Lock.
As you get ready for the start of school, be sure to check out my post with a special Back-to-School Safety Tip.
