Allergic reactions, depend ing on their severity, may cause runny nose, watery and red eyes, itching and inflamed skin, sinus stuffiness, swollen mouth or throat, headache, and difficult breathing. Eye drop medicines can help people cope with eye allergies. Artificial tears help wash foreign materials out of the eyes. Preservative-free artificial tears will help relieve dry eyes, a prob lem in about a third of persons who experience allergies. D econgestant eye d ro p s skrink swollen blood vessels in the eye and help remove eye red ness. Mild over-the-counter de congestants typically contain less than one percent of phenyl ephrine, naphazoline, oxymeta- zoline, or similar medicines. De congestant eye drops are com bined with astringents such as zinc sulfate and antihistamines such as pheniramine. Both are useful in controlling itching. Other eye medicines include mast cell stabilizers such as lodoxamide which help control the release of histamine from certain body cells. Nonsteroidal antiflam m atory agents such as ketorolac are approved to con trol itching associated with sea sonal allergies. ïs s s » m s m s m s * « ms ms A dult and Family Services, Blue M o untain C om m unity College, Em ploym ent Division, a n d the C om m unity Action P ro g ra m E a st C e n tra l O regon/JTPA (CAPECO) and V o c a tio n a l R e h a b ilita tio n Division.

W hile the holiday season prom ises to be a joyful tim e, filled w ith anticipation and delight, it can also be ex hausting, disappointing, a n d expensive. P a ren ts see too m uch to do, too little time to do it in, and not enough m oney to pay for everything o n th e list. The answ er to this com m on dilem m a, notes D oescher, lies partly in having realistic expec tations, partly in sim plifying preparations a n d gift-giving. D oescher has th e follow ing suggestions for p arents: T im ing-children begin to see holiday decorations in stores b e fo re T h a n k s g iv in g . B ut preschool children have dif ficulty grasping th e concept of tim e a n d are m ore likely to u n d e rsta n d " y e s te rd a y " a n d " to d a y " th an " to m o rro w " . Try d o w n playing th e w aiting period for the actual holiday an d focusing on som e special activity d u rin g each w eek. T ra d itio n s -h o lid a y rituals and traditions d raw families together a n d create w onderful m em ories th at link the past w ith the future. H ow ever, try ing to do everything connected w ith holiday celebrations can be exhausting. Decide on those that will m ean the m ost to your children, m aybe cutting dow n a C hristm as tree, or baking special holiday treats, or m ak ing decorations, o r collecting food for oth ers less fortunate, and be realistic in w hat you can reasonbably accom plish. For children, th e process is as im portant as the finished product. G ift-g iv in g -te a c h ch ild ren the joys of giving by helping them to m ake gifts for th e im po rtan t people in th eir lives. Save c h ild ren 's artw ork a n d help th em to construct a scrap book. Ask children to dictate a story about th e doings of a favorite stuffed anim al or doll, a n d help them m ake th e dic tated story into a gift book. Bake som e special cookies together or frost a n d decorate store-bought cookies an d w rap th em festively. O r purchase a sm all h o u sep lan t a n d help the child p u t it in a decorated container. Selecting to y s-g ifts are an im p o rtan t p art of H an u k k ah a n d C hristm as celebrations. But in to d a y 's atm o sp h ere of h e ig h te n ed consum erism and high p ressu re advertising, fin d in g a toy w ith lasting play value can be a challenge. A general guideline is to select play m aterials th at encourage children to solve problem s and use their im agination. D o n 't overlook collecting materials for a play kit: a little suitcase filled with dress-up clothes; a sew ing kit w ith blunt plastic needles, large-m esh screen, and colored yam s; or a carpentry kit w ith pieces of soft pine a n d real tools. A nd if children receive a great m any gifts, p u t som e aw ay to bring o ut at a later tim e.
