My DD (4.5) likes to flap when she is 'reading' (or being read to)and when watching TV. She likes to find something to flap with i.e. a floppy object! She would have flapped her arms a bit as a baby when excited, but not to any noticeable extent (I think).
Picking up 'a flapping thing' as she calls it has developed over the last year or so.
She was a late walker and has benign hypotonia. There are still a few issues there (and may always be) but she joins in with all activities at school, albeit cautiously with PE etc.
She is very articulate and getting on well at school with reading/writing. Her teacher has not mentioned the above and DD says she doesn't do it at school.
She does seem to have an incredible imagination and can amuse herself for long periods.
From what I can gather, she has days where she plays in a group at school and other days she plays alone (in the playground).
Should I let it go as a phase, or is it indicative of anything else?
We had a lot of worry with the late walking and I don't want to be OTT, however, if there's something I should be doing...
thanks. I would be grateful for advice.
