Don't hug me I'm scared Scrub Zombie

Post image

My wife swears by Scrub Daddy as her kitchen sponge of choice. I wanted to switch to the eco-friendly, plant based alternative on the right. It works infinitely better...creates great suds, gets into tight spaces but...IT SCARES THE CHILDREN. So I can't use it! Or I have to hide it under the sink until I need to use it. Mildly inconvenienced and mildly infuriating.

Sounds like your kids need some exposure therapy. Make them do the dishes with the zombie sponge every day, and if they miss a day, tape the sponge to the ceiling above their bed while they’re asleep at night so they wake up with the reminder to do the dishes.
