Shields are very easy to wear - much easier than a mask since it isn't directly on your face so you aren't tempted to fiddle with it. In high risk situations I wear a mask and the shield.
For kids, you might buy them a mask from zazzle which is personalized with the motif of their choice. Tiaras, super-hero, flowers etc. Kids love costumes so this is a way of making the experience fun.
For others, just get over it. Asian countries wear masks routinely and have for years with no untoward effects. It's an adjustment. Per Goldman Sachs - hardly a leftwing source of information - if everyone wore masks, 5% of the GNP would be saved which would be a huge boost to the economy.

I think most kids would be mortified to wear this. Unless everyone around you is going out like this.

There are a number of things that can raise your heart rate, including exercise and anxiety. Did they recheck it once you had sat down for a while?

OP:
you can assure your daughter that even if masks are mandatory in school, more than likely they won't be enforced and most kids will NOT wear them all day.
Her teacher isnt gonna throw her out of class if she removes her mask. Her principal wont throw her out of school if she removes her mask.
She can calm down. She'll deal with it if it actually comes to fruition. No use fretting about it now.

I do all the time. I got used to it. My pupils hear me fine.

My kids would be mortified by the middle one because they know The Flash wears a red uniform and his symbol is on his chest, not his head.

As a nurse, im merely raising an eyebrow. Your heart rate could have been your "active heart rate" from walking for 10 minutes, and it also could easily have been from you feeling stressed out about your mask. (Thinking "I cant breathe in this thing!"raises your anxiety level, easily increases your heart rate).
If it would have been causing you respiratory issues your oxygen saturation would have been low (measured by the pulse ox in your finger) and you would have exhibited signs of respiratory distress.
Neither any of my colleagues nor myself have ever had a low pulse ox or any other signs of respiratory distress after wearing our N95 TIGHT SEAL mask for hours (not your flimsy paper/cloth mask that lets air in!). Yes, we felt anxious, yes we felt "I cant breathe I cant breathe!". But physically, we're fine.

I think if masks of some sort were made mandatory (seems likely), many younger kids would find these to be a fun option.
Time to think out of the box.

I think the schools won’t require mask (at least in 3 state area) after the election 😀
