  • The Sponge wheels are a set of unlockable wheels in Mario Kart 7 and in Mario Kart 8. In Mario Kart 7, they offer good acceleration, but bad speed and weight. In Mario Kart 8, they excel at acceleration and traction, but hinder in speed, weight, and handling. Its stats are identical with the Wood and Cushion tires.

  • A Sponge is a Decorative Block introduced in Update 0.8.0 that is available in Creative Mode and by going to Ocean Monuments.
  • Sponges are used to apply various types of makeup and paint. They are benificial due to their flexibility, their ability to hold lots of product, and they are often more disposible, and therefore more sanitary over brushes.
  • Sponge is a category of buildable materials used in Create Mode. Naturally, Sponge is grabable, being one of the few materials in LittleBigPlanet to naturally have such a characteristic. As sponge is a category of materials, there are many different types of sponge that can be collected via Story Levels and Mini-games (and DLC counterparts).
  • A Sponge is a block notable for being able to absorb water around itself, turning into a Wet Sponge in the process.
  • Sponge is a relatively rare colour that can only be achieved through the Lab Ray or a Fountain Faerie quest.
  • Sponges are animals of the phylum Porifera. Their bodies consist of jelly-like mesohyl sandwiched between two thin layers of cells. While all animals have unspecialized cells that can transform into specialized cells, sponges are unique in having some specialized cells that can transform into other types, often migrating between the main cell layers and the mesohyl in the process. Sponges do not have nervous, digestive or circulatory systems. Instead most rely on maintaining a constant water flow through their bodies to obtain food and oxygen and to remove wastes, and the shapes of their bodies are adapted to maximize the efficiency of the water flow.

  • Sponges are commonly made up of cellulose wood fibres, or foamed plastic polymers. Loofah sponges are made of the dried fruit from the luffa plant. Sponges due to their structure to soak up water and clean effectively on a lot of surfaces and can gather a lot of bacteria as well. You can clean them by dirty running them through the dishwasher. Another way to clean them is to allow them to be soak with water, placing them in the microwave oven and run it for two minutes. This will effectively reach the denaturing threshold for any growth of bacteria and fungi. You can also reduce the growth of bacteria by allowing the sponge to dry between uses. Many synthetic sponges now advertise anti-bacterial properties from anti-microbial toxins.
  • Gauze sponges are standard medical supplies used in emergency medicine, surgery and ongoing care to clean open wounds and incisions of blood, pus, dead tissue and other foreign material. They generally come in three standard sizes - 2"x2", 3"x3" and 4"x4". To ensure that portions of the sponge do not stick to or infiltrate the body, they are made of a non-woven material comprised of cotton. They can be provided sterile (for use in surgery or open wounds) or non-sterile (for cleaning unbroken skin).
