See your doctor!: This behavior generally is limited to infants and toddlers. They are explorers and in playing with poop they have no concept of it being dirty or socially unacceptable. Since you have a 5 year old, this is not an age where i would consider this normal. See your pediatrician or psychiatrist/psychologist to evaluate reasons for her actions.
