Splinter Removal?

Anyone have a good method of removing splinters? DD has about 4 on her fingers and palms. DH and I both tried removing them with no luck. I soaked her hands in warm water for about 40 minutes (we watched a lot of You Tube!), to no avail. Help! I don't want to take her to the pediatrician for this...she'll get really upset.

just use the tweezers, and sometimes a tiny needle to break open the skin.

My mom always did it with duct tape. Never hurt!
