    She could have sensory processing disorder (SPD) she may be sensory seeking, her thing is chewing/mouthing things. No amount of telling her to stop, will make her stop.

    I just did a google search and it does explain a fair few of her odd behaviours. I think a trip to the doctors is a must tomorrow.

    Sounds like my eldest DD. She has what Olive mentioned. Hers is an oral sensory issue. Speaking with an OT will benefit greatly as they can offer different items that are specific to the disorder.

    i agree with Rosetti, you might need a referral from your local Dr for someone who works in that field. I just found some of those toys online, check out special needs toys dot com dot au they have some necklaces and pendants which she might like and save your household items!!!
