Can you open all the locks with one single key?

Answer: Yes, you can. Use the white key to open the white lock to obtain the yellow key to obtain the yellow lock, and continue until the end! Do you know the answer before you look into the answer? (No pun intended.)

How to make one:
My set is a little complicated because I am trying to make my set appealing for both English and non-English speakers. However, you can easily make a set by:
1) Buy 5 different locks (The picture only shows one.)

2) Use a marker to mark the lock. (I labeled this one as home.)

3) Then use the marker to label the key (Label the key as Home Key)

4) Do the same for the rest of the locks, but label them with different names, such as shed, park, car, or safe.
More ideas:
There are many places to put the locks. Creativity is only your limit.
