I've seen kids around 8yrs old playing like they've been at it for 20 years, so I'm not so sure that hand size has an extremely large factor in playing the guitar. The best suggestion I've heard so far is getting lighter strings, and from experience, I totally agree.

I just had my Martin acoustic adjusted and re-strung with lighter strings, and let me tell you.......what a difference it makes! I spent around $45 at a local Guitar Center and it was by far the best investment (besides this website) that I could have made, in becoming a better guitar player.
