Hyperactive Children Can Benefit From an Inflatable Bounce House

By PHT Support

by Christine A Buckly

Is your child driving you a little crazy? Hyperactive children can be very difficult to deal with. The have a hard time concentrating, they cannot keep still, they do not listen and they can drive you nuts.

These kids have a very hard time staying on a task and they often lose interest in playing games. Their teachers find them to be very challenging, and when punished, it just seems to make matters worse.

Involving the child in activities such as bicycling, swimming and gymnastics not only gives them a great sense of accomplishment, but the physical activity is a natural way to reduce stress and calm the child. Many Parents are finding the more active their child is, the better they are able to focus.

Did you ever stop to consider that certain types of toys could help your difficult child with their issues? The residential bounce house is a perfect example of a toy that will give a hyperactive child the necessary form of release.

The inflatable bounce house is very attractive to children; it beckons them with its joyful colors. Bold colors are very stimulating to a childs mind. Colors provide an excitement for children, which is the source of more joy while playing.

Kids can literally spend hours in a bounce house releasing tons of energy and at the same time, releasing the built up stress that causes so many of their problems.

The bounce house offers an opportunity for children to play together. When children are playing in groups, they also develop social skills. It is the perfect environment for the hyperactive child to play well with other children.

Inflatable bounce houses are large in size, and this gives the child even more pleasure, as there is more space for the imagination and creativity.

Children learn so much about their world through playing. This is a critical factor in sharpening their emotional, intellectual and problem solving skills. Jumping in an inflatable bounce house also assists in helping to calm the child down as the jumping up and down movement releases endorphins.

Child are like little sponges, always ready to learn and experience new things. A bounce house play time gives them the opportunity to learn about cause and effect. They are always having to adjust and readjust to regain their balance as the other children jump along side of them. Help your active child release and learn with a residential bounce house.

Children – Tonsils and Tonsillitis in Children

By PHT Support

by Melinda Mahrer

Tonsils are two tissue balls located at the back of the throat. They play a vital role and are an important part of the body’s infection fighting mechanism by helping to fight germs and diseases. Tonsils deal with the germs before they reach mouth, throat, or sinuses. When these infection fighters are infected by viruses or bacteria.

The symptoms of tonsillitis are: as the time passes, eating, drinking and swallowing things become difficult. The pain can be accompanied with fever, aching and headache. The tonsils can be seen too. Just open the mouth wide open and the two masses of tissues at the either side of the throat are tonsils. They are usually dark pink in color, but when they get infected they turn red. A white or yellow coating can also be formed on the tonsils. There is an obvious change in voice as it becomes hoarser. The infected child can also develop bad breath. The infected kid can also get abdominal pain and can throw up what he eats. Tonsillitis is caused by both bacterial infection and viral infection. Bacterium known as streptococci causes infections which require special treatment.

When the child gets tonsillitis, the parent should give lots of fluids to drink. Smooth food should be consumed to ease the pain caused by swallowing coarse, crunchy, and hard food. Food like soups, ice creams, applesauce, and gelatin are a good option. Spicy food should also be avoided. A humidifier or cool mist vaporizer can be placed in the child’s room as that will make breathing more easily. The kid must be given maximum rest and complete bed rest for at least two days is recommended. The bacteria and viruses cause tonsillitis to spread by sneezing, coughing or touching. The infected child must cover his/her mouth while coughing and sneezing. A disposable tissue can be used instead of a towel or handkerchief.

The doctor inspects the tonsils using a wooden stick known as tongue depressor, which will lower the tongue, so that the doctor can have a good look at the tonsils. After that the doctor checks the ears and nose. Heartbeat will be checked. If the doctor suspects strep, he/she will take a sample of saliva from the back of the throat using a long cotton swab, which can gag up the child a bit. After a day or two the results are received. Some doctors conduct a similar test known as rapid strep test, which give results within few minutes. Antibiotics are given when the test results come positive for strep. The bacteria get killed only when the course is completed and the correct dosage is taken at correct time.

If virus is the cause of infection, there is no medicine for it and instead the body is capable of fighting the virus on its own. When the tonsils infection becomes frequent and the child finds it difficult to breath because of tonsillitis, it is recommended to get the tonsils removed. But it is the last resort after all other treatments do not do the trick, because tonsils are very important to the body’s immune system.

The tonsils are taken out by surgery known as tonsillectomy. After the surgery, the child won’t suffer from sore throat and breathing problems anymore. The surgery won’t even leave any scars. A day before the surgery, the child cannot eat or drink, to keep the child from throwing up during the operation. The operation is very short and last for only twenty minutes. Because of the anesthesia, the child won’t feel a thing during the operation. And during the surgery, the tonsils are removed using an electric cautery, which is a burning tool, or a cutting tool. After the surgery, the child is given lots of fluids and after a day soft foods can also be given. Usually it takes about two weeks to completely recover from the surgery and the child can return back to normal activities.
