A variant of the interposing hand spell. When cast, a transparent hand appears and pats the target on the head. This does no damage but counts as an attack in regards to concentrating for spellcasting. If the roll fails, a soft "Shssshing' is heard and the difficulty increases by 2 for the next check.

Could this be paired with Mordenkainen's mansplaining mouth to stack the DC increase?

Many moons ago, one of the April fool's issues of Dragon magazine, IIRC, had spells like 'Figby's Fondling Fingers' and 'Figby's Groping Paw.'
More useful and less joke-y variants might include spells like Bigby's Hindering Hand, that functions like spiritual weapon, but instead of attacking for regular damage, just attempts to slap and distract a target, causing them to have to make concentration checks to cast spells, or giving them a -2 to various rolls due to distraction.
A stronger version might make trip, disarm or steal attempts, or strike for 1d3 nonlethal damage, each round.
