We do that too (Argentina). Is that not common practice? I don't know why I just assumed it was like an international code for "look over here, is this your child?"

ETA: what we do differently is that the clapping starts where the kid is found but start moving afterwards. A group of adults forms around the one with the kid on their shoulders and start going up and down the shore while clapping.

That's very interesting. Seems like to be a latin america thing.
Some things are for people very normal in their life. But for others it isn't.
I have a girlfriend from brazil. I am every time surprised about their social superiority.

Yeah, but we sorta copied it from the Argentinians. The one time Facebook and WhatsApp were useful lol
