I am not sure what this redness is due to but as it does not hurt and there is no pain, I am not too concerned. If it starts to hurt or she seems unwell generally, you best have your local doctor look at it.
By far the majority of foot problems at this age are due to ill- fitting footwear. I wonder if her foot is sliding back and forth within the shoe giving the reddish appearance but that is only a guess.
