SukiSmiles I have never had trouble opening those caps - not even when I was a child. I always had to open them for my mom, because she never could get them open either. So, I really don't see how they are suppose to keep kids out.

savypat @savypat (20216) • United States 4 May 09

Just an Ordinary Owl? @owlwings (43910) • Cambridge, England 9 Apr 09

SukiSmiles That's funny! What a great thing to scrapbook. Maybe some shiny paper that looks like the floor you waxed. You could use diecuts of socks to put on your page too. Or photos of your socked feet. You could make a mop out of yarn, wire and a small dowl to put on...
