I know all children can be silly so I'm not sure if this was just a kid thing or if I was a little more extreme because of ADHD.
I remember when I was little, around about age 5 or 6, I was laying in bed calling things in my room a silly word then laughing hysterically. I called other family members into my room, asked them what an object was, then when they said what it was I yelled "no, it's a [whatever the silly word I made up was]!" and laughed helplessly. I don't think my family got cross but they probably got exhausted from my silliness.
Yet little girls on the mild end of the spectrum are supposed to be little professors? I don't think I was. I was either screwing around being silly and hyperactive, or crying, whining and demanding, or behaving sulkily for attention.
