Floor material, in a children's game (4)

I believe the answer is:

lava

(Other definitions for lava that I've seen before include "Molten rock from volcanoes" , "Molten rock expelled by a volcano" , "Hot molten rock" , "Flowing volcanic matter" , "Volcanic flowing substance" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
