Hello Granny
There is a solvent for Super Glue. It is sold as Duro brand Super Glue Remover. It is sold in hardware and building-supply stores. The stuff is awful strong and may mar the flooring finish. I would try it in a closet corner or other out of the way place to make sure it does not adversely affect the flooring laminate.
Good Luck

Acetone is the correct solvent for super glue; other stuff won't work. But you should mask off the area just in case the acetone attackes the finish of the floor.
If you're brave, you might use a razor to catch one edge of the glue stain. If you can catch an edge, you might be able to pull it up. At worst, you might use fine sandpaper (mask it off) and then refinish the area. But that's like, The Bomb, and you don't want to do that unless the glue forms a high bubble or is really unsightly.
One last thought; the glue might be brittle, and if you tap it just right you might get it to crack.

Well.. it will not be easy.. believe me..Acetone more than likely, will do it, but you have to work at it. Dampen a rag with the acetone and rub over the super glue. It will soften the glue, and eventually remove it. Use PLENTY of acetone and keep working at it. I use acetone all the time to remove super glue from the paint and covering of my model airplanes. It just takes a little time and

My husband actually found this solution that is made especially for removing super-glue and it really works! I was repairing my glasses and it cleaned it up super fast when I got it on the lens. He picked it up from a hobby store as a debonder but I'm not sure if it isn't available at commercial stores... good luck!

Oops will work sometimes, otherwise scraping is the answer.
