Back to School: Lysol No-Touch Review and Giveaway

Going Back to School often leads to sick children.  Kids at school are sharing much more than jump ropes and pencils, they are also sharing nasty germs!  Washing their hands is the best way to fight germs and prevent sickness both at school and at home.

At home I know what my children are touching and what has touched the surfaces but when they are at school I really have no idea.  I have to take all the precautions I can while at home and make sure they know to wash their hands when they are at school too.  Afterall, education begins at home!

The Lysol No-Touch system is perfect for home, work or the classroom.  My 7 year old daughter was more excited about having one in our home than I was!  We had seen them on commercials and in stores and she's been asking for one for months.  She couldn't wait to use it and quickly moved it from the kitchen into her bathroom.



I love the Lysol No-Touch System because I can easily wash my hands without getting food and other stuff on my soap dispenser.   I don't have to worry that I touched the handle after preparing raw meat and that's one less chore for me!



I also love the new Lysol Dual Action Disinfecting Wipes for cleaning the kitchen counters, table and bathroom.  One side of the wipe is perfect for wiping down everyday surfaces for cleaning while the other side has the perfect amount of scrubbers for those crusty, sticky messes!

I've always been a fan of Lysol products and their latest ones make me love them even more. Anything that makes my busy schedule just a little bit easier gets perks in my book!

Handwashing Tips:

Handwashing is one of the most effective ways to stop the spread of germs. Every time you touch a contaminated surface, you can transfer germs to and from your hands — but proper and thorough hand washing removes most germs from your hands.

Back-To-School Basics:  

Traditionally, classrooms are breeding ground for germs. Every desktop, pencil sharpener, doorknob and faucet that an infected child touches becomes colonized with germs.
