Choosing Books as Childrens Gifts for Christmas
For children from toddlers to preteens, books offer enduring gifts beyond toys. Read aloud to toddlers, progress to picture books with large pictures, then explore stories about peers, animals, and everyday life. As age increases, preferences shift to fantasy, humor, biographies, adventures, and series featuring a single lead character.

Humidity and Colds: Home Moisture Reduces Illness
High room humidity helps throat and nasal membranes resist bacteria, lowers colds and sinus troubles, and can trim heating costs. Portable and central humidifiers exist, including atomizer, evaporator, and vaporizer types. For 10,000 cubic feet, about one quart per hour humidification is needed in tightly built homes and about 1.75 quarts for looser structures.
