Does your child do things with their hands when they are scolded/stopped or told not to do something? My child will snap her fingers in front of her face or twist her fingers or do weird signs with her hands or cross her eyes/make funny faces while pointing if she is told to stop or she doesn’t want to listen.

The faces seem normal but the hand signals or snapping or clapping is unique to her. She’s being screened but I was wondering if other kids do that. She’s 4 but has done this since she was little. She’s always wiggling her fingers in her face looking close at them or I call it “star-catching” she’s got her arms going up and down all day long with wild spirit fingers when they aren’t in her mouth. I think my older kids “aged out of” this stuff by 4 and she seems to be “aging into it”
