The Christmas Season is upon us. In many
towns and cities, the Santa Claus parade has
ushered Santa to his throne in local depart-
ment stores and malls. At home, the festive
hustle and bustle has begun, and children
are excited as 'the yearly ceremony of "put-
ting up the tree' is drawing near.
"It is a wonderful time for both children
and adults alike," says Marybelle Ford,
Program Co-ordinator of the Lung Associa-
tion in Huron -Perth. "But in the midst of
happiness, we would like to warn parents
that possible tragedy lurks in the form of the
brightly coloured plastic ornaments dangl-
ing from the tree."
The dangling ornament often entices the
toddler to grab it, put it in his month, only to
realize that it isn't candy. Surprised, the
youngster tries to spit it out. But it cracks,
and a portion of the plastic lodges in his
windpipe or as aspirated (inhaled) into his
lungs. This is a possible tragedy in the midst
of fun. Aspiration of foreign objects is a
leading cause of death and injury among
children under six years of age.
How can you help to keep preschoolers
safe? The Lung Association suggests: ` do
not place tiny ornaments on low tree boughs
where a youngster can.grab them; "tell San-
ta Claus to bring presents that do nb.ve
button eyes or tiny car wheels that c co
loose; * keep small "finger food" ac
peanuts and popcorn off low coffee tables
when you entertain. Food also can b
aspirated.
