6 Year Old Who Snores

My 6 year old daughter has snored for as long as I can remember. I took her to her Ear, Nose and Throat doctor and he recommended surgery to have her tonsils and adenoids removed. I know this is a common procedure but it still seems a little drastic to me. Are there any alternatives to surgery to help her snoring and get a better night's sleep?

Dust Mite Allergies

5 Year Old with Itchy Eyes (Seasonal Allergies) Looking for Relief

My 5 year old has Seasonal Allergies and her eyes are really bothering her. This isn't unexpected as this happened the last few years but I'm concerned about the intensity this year. The strange thing is her eyes themselves are not red but the skin around them and her cheeks are red, I think partially from rubbing them. I know the allergies will pass but wanted some ideas on how to help her. She says a wet washcloth helps but you can't carry this around 24/7. The least amount of drugs the better, but if it comes to that I think she's...
