In a Clear and Concise Essay...

Q: What is the worst possible substance for your kids to dump on a freshly mopped floor?

A: I’m going with a package of Jell-O. All that powder on a damp floor turns into a sticky, stainy goo that’s impossible to keep from spreading to the rest of the house. I don’t know if the regular or sugar-free stuff is worse, but the kids dumped a box of each on the floor today just to be sure.
