Hello,
It seems your daughter is suffering from absence seizures. The symptoms you have described point towards it. You should take her to a neurologist and get her proper assessment done.
The neurologist may advise an EEG and MRI. If diagnosed she may have to be put on anti-epileptic Medicines.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nazma Amman
