pushing the envelope of pedantry there! I think once they're using "kids" then all need to write formally is gone. Almost entitled to put "Water's good 4 ... "

It isn't actually written, it is a voice over so maybe they are reading 'water's good 4 ur kids'

Like "we're sorry but.." signs everywhere. Matey and annoying. Contractions are for speech
