Would any of your 7 children have been playing a wrestling game it sounded like something happened it disapeared very quickly, do any of the older ones look after her ?

the rash went away as quick as it came...checked her this morning and it was gone....very strange. I have 7 children and have never seen such a rash as this.....

Here is a skin rash photo gallery.  If they were red inside, I'd suggest you double check the symptoms of meningitis, but it actually does sound a little like ringworm (except, of course, for how widespread over her body it is.)  Check out the photos of various skin rashes on the link below.  Good luck!

Did she have a fever before getting the spots? My 15 month old boy had a fever for several days then he developed red dots on the back, trunk and neck. We suspect rosalia.
