I remember summer vacations well. When I was 9, my family took a 4-week-long road-trip out to the Maritimes and back! We had a blast, and the car…..well…..let’s just say I wish we had some Febreze Carpet Care Solutions in 1984! My sister and I tracked in spots and stains that I’m sure never fully came out – but isn’t that what childhood summers are all about? The freedom from school and the joy of discovery at the cost of a few extra cleaning sessions?
Febreze Carpet Care is not just about your household carpets! Their Spot and Stain Remover is perfect for the car too! And their Carpet Care Solutions are also specially formulated to be used on upholstery! No matter how creative your children are this summer, no matter how many baseball games you attend in the rain, cheering those slides into 1st, or simply celebrate staying in your sandy swimsuits for the ride home – embrace these moments! Febreze Carpet Care has you covered!

Surprises on the soles!
Pancakes with syrup
Ice cream cones
Actually it was Nerds. Summer before last my daughter accidentally spilled some on my light colored carpet. She didn’t tell me she spilled it and the heat melted it into the carpet. The stain will not come out. I have tried everything.
Mudd Pies!!!! Talk about MAD! hahaha.
Paint. We were leaving and my son thought he would help dad load the car and he brought a gallon of paint. Lol. The lid was loose because we were painting and needless to say. All over the carpeting. We called a dealership. They said use windex and amazing as it was we were able to get it all out. :)
Windex! I’ll have to remember that one!
Ice cream!
I think it would have to be a cranberry juice cocktail. Could never get the red fully out of the upholstery.

Grape Kool-aid
Right now just herself (shes only five months) but she has managed to spit up from her rear facing car seat and get it all over the actual seats of the car.
The messiest thing the kids have brought into my car is ice cream cones, so now we don’t get cones I have them put them in cups with the cone to crunch on top. Kinda like an upside down ice cream no more sticky mess!
Squeezed apple sauce packs in the floor boards!
Choco Taco
Everything they bring into my becomes the messiest thing but topping the list is Ice cream drip, drip, drip
Wet dog is the worst!!! Hate those rainy days!

Oh! I forgot crayons! I don’t know if it was my son or my niece, but someone left crayons behind the back seat of my sister in law’s car and they melted!
I don’t have a car, but my son has made quite a mess of his grandparents’ and aunt’s car… suckers, chocolate milk, exploding diapers…
Ice cream is def the messiest!

Ice cream for sure – but I guess it’s my fault for giving them ice cream while driving!

The messiest thing that my daughter had in the car was a sucker! It was stuck to my seat… the seat is still sticky there and it’s been a year!
My daughter can turn anything messy in the car lol The two messiest things would have to be milk and vomit .She seems to get sick a lot while the car is running.

Mud and chocolate
The messiest thing would be um….personal things from my late daughter after many daily treatments she’d have to have.
What a tough journey! I can’t even imagine!

Fruit snacks because they dropped some and they melted from the heat and needless to say it was super hard to clean
its a toss up between lollipops and icecream
Red clay mud on beige interior yikes! thanks!
Does a bloody nose count? That was really messy. And vomit. For some reason food that is partially digested is always messier than uneaten food. Sorry to be gross, but we generally don’t eat in the car :)

The worst mess BY FAR Was the hidden chocolate milk my toddler hid purposely for whatever reason. I could smel something and sniffed it out to find it had exploded and was curdled and thick and STUNK!
