Allergies can cause big problems for children, but a few extra precautions from parents can help tame allergy symptoms.

The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests:

• When pollen season is in high gear (particularly when weather is dry and windy), close the windows.
• Make sure your home is dry and clean to minimize mold and dust mites.
• Don’t bring plants or pets into your home.
• Avoid exposure to things that trigger your child’s allergies.
• Don’t let anyone smoke near your child.
• Talk to your child’s pediatrician about allergy medication.
