Small sanitary pads for pre-teens?

My friend's asked me to ask if anyone has 10/11 yos who have started their periods - what sanitary pads do they use? She's been looking for something for her dd who is just starting, but is small and skinny and everything seems far too big and bulky and uncomfortable.
Any advice? Can't see any brands at all on boots or superdrug websites.

Boots sell some specifically aimed at teens called "Ultra teen". They are slightly smaller than adult ones. Here is a link www.teentowel.co.uk

sainsburys wilkinsons ,boots own make all are good you canc get 1's from asdsa i believe called teen pads.Moxie are slim and I use them most often they do night pads, day pads, liners nd applicator nd non applicator tampons.Kits if not started yet PoGo, Aetite amie search for my first period kit, free period kits or period kits loads will come up or tampon holders nd a starter site will cum up specalises in purses nd starter packs,it's usually first one .Or type in free samples of sanitary napkin.towels or pads.

8? How horrible, poor thing :(

Will look out for those brands mentioned as my dsd is finding STs quite annoying.
