If she's not bleeding too much, I suggest going with just the shorts. They're like maxi pads. I have very, very light periods and that's what I end up doing most of the time.
Oh and by the way I have used tampons since my first periods or so and I don't see what difference it makes... I would even say that it is good that she get to know her body and feel confident about it. At this time she certainly knows that tampons exist and if I had a daughter I certainly wouldn't want her to think that tampons are "dirty" or anything because you have to be intimate with yourself (!) to put them on.
