Have you ever wondered why people say it's bad to put your shoes on a table? Well, let's imagine you have a delicious cake that your mom just made. She worked really hard to bake it. Now, you decide to put your dirty shoes on top of the table where you eat your food. Uh oh! Your shoes might have stepped on dirty things like mud, gum, or who knows what! You wouldn't want all that yucky stuff to get on your cake, would you? That's why people say it's better to keep your shoes on the floor and not put them on the table. It helps to keep things clean and makes sure any dirt or germs don't go where they shouldn't. So, next time you want to put your shoes on a table, remember it's much better to keep them on the nice clean floor!
