to have decided that the only possible way to clean up the mop bucket full of water

[Cathycomehome]

that my son managed to kick all over the kitchen floor, was to stand on a towel and scoot up and down the floor on it.

And to have found this fun.

That's my preferred method of cleaning my kitchen floor. I like to think of it as a mini work out.

Did the same a few weeks ago. DS aged 4 wanted to slide along the floor on his belly, like some kind of muddy festival goer. in all the filthy mop water. lovely.

Excellent. I shall employ this method for regular floor cleaning in future and will tell partner that the method is mumsnet officially accredited.

Same partner who just walked in and said "What on Earth are you doing?? And why are you grinning like that??"
