Petecchiae: Petecchiae are little bits of blood leaking out of blood vessels and into the skin. Most important is to be sure that your platelets and blood clotting are working fine. After that, usually viral infections or autoimmune problems. If your daughter looks otherwise well, likely to improve by itself.
