It is easy to get so caught up in the "busyness" of Christmas and forget to take the time to sit down with children and explain why we have the observance. In addition, some adults feel incapable of coming up with the right words and explaining its meaning so children will understand. Here is a suggested way to tell children the basics of what all should know about Christmas. It may be told in one's own words or simply read to children.

When the world was created, Jesus was with God. Jesus is God's son. God made Adam and Eve and they began to have children. Soon there were many people on earth and God told the people what he wanted them to do to worship him. He gave the Ten Commandments. He also required them to sacrifice animals to him.

The people sinned a lot. They did not follow the instructions God had given them. God decided to send his only son, Jesus, to earth to live with people and teach them the right way to live. John 3:16 in the Bible says, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life."

Jesus came as a little baby. He was born in a stable because there was no room for Mary, his mother, and Joseph, His earthly father, anyplace else. Christmas is for celebrating the birthday of Jesus.

God sent angels to shepherds to announce the birth of Jesus. When Jesus was about two years old, some wise men saw a strange star and followed it to Jesus. They took gold, frankincense, and myrrh as gifts to him. On the way, they stopped to see King Herod who was jealous of Jesus because he had heard that Jesus was going to be a king. He wanted to kill Jesus, so he asked the wise men to come back and tell him where Jesus was. They didn't do it. Herod ordered all little boys under the age of two killed. Joseph and Mary took Jesus to Egypt to protect him.

When the danger was over, Joseph and Mary went home. Jesus grew up helping Joseph in Joseph's carpenter's shop. When He was about twelve years old, he was teaching in the temple. When he was about 30 years old, he began his ministry. He told many stories to teach us the right way to live, and he healed many people. When he was about 33 years old, some people got angry with him and decided to try to do away with him. He was crucified on a cross. After three days, he came back alive. We celebrate Easter to remember his crucifixion and his coming back to life. Jesus was the last sacrifice and people didn't have to sacrifice animals any more.

Jesus stayed on earth for a while; then, he went up to heaven. He is still alive and wants us all to believe in him and be saved. If we truly believe in him, are really sorry for our sins, and ask him to save us, he will send the Holy Spirit into our hearts, and when we die, we can live with him forever.

Many of us come to despair when we notice in our luxurious hair - the dandruff. But do not fall into panic - the problem can be resolved.Contrary to the popular belief, dandruff can appear as well for the owner of dry as oily hair. And then - none of us can feel safe.

What to do if you notice you have dandruff?

The first step is to pick the right means for the care of hair. And one shampoo, designed to fight dandruff, is not enough - no matter how good it can be. Also is needed the conditioner - specifically to fight dandruff. It helps to moisten the hair, but does not remain on the head skin, and therefore does not encourage the emergence of additional dandruff.

When selecting the products for the care of the hair, you should also take into account your hair type - otherwise beyond dandruff you get other problems. If your hair is fatty, avoid oily and oil-based solutions. And regardless of the type of your hair, do not buy lotions, which include benzoyl peroxide. It can run into chemical reactions with other substances applied on the hair (for example, with hair paint). The result can be unpredictable.

When buying anti-dandruff shampoo pay attention to labels indicating the force of its action. The best option is the medium-effect shampoo. It does not dry your hair like this happens in the case of a highly-acting shampoo, but at the same time will be sufficiently effective.

Do not forget that it not necessarily to use anti-dandruff shampoo every day. You can sometimes replace it well with your usual shampoo - so you minimize the harm that might cause the special treatment shampoos (for example, excessive dryness of hair).

If, despite all efforts, dandruff hasn't disappeared, and continues to torture you for several weeks, better visit the dermatologist. This may be a manifestation of an allergy for some of your cosmetics for hair, or a symptom of hormonal problems or other diseases. A doctor can help you understand the cause and find a suitable treatment.
