I wonder if there if there is a way taking oneof the links out but don't have a clue how. Any suggestions / helpwould be great and make my wee girl happy again.

You should be able to take a link out if it's very slack, you need a little tool you can buy from halfords etc. Or a bike shop nearby might do it for next to nothing.0

yup as said if it has horizontal dropouts(where the wheel slides in) then loosen it and move the wheel back.
then tighten it back up.0
