We have an inflatable kiddie pool and yesterday I noticed algae in the bottom. I drained it and went to spray it out today and the algae won't come off! How do I get the algae off w/out damaging the pool?

Bleach! Just buy cheap ole' bleach, pour it in, add a bit of water, and after about 10 minutes, use an old broom (or just the spray nozzle of the hose) and swish it around. Rinse well and drain! After that, add about 1 cup of bleach to your regular pool water, and it will help keep the algae from growing so fast! My mom taught me this when I was a little girl...and I've done it with my kids for 18 years!
