it seemed to me that since they didn't have quite the same
problem men have (or think we have), they should be OK
and that seems to be the case as they switch from city
bikes to the Casatis.

I'm 6'4" and can comfortably ride 60-64cm c-c but I need
the 140mm stem extension on the 60cm bike. And I have the
saddles back hard on their rails for extra saddle to
bar length on all my bikes too.

At 6'4" there aren't many bikes too big for you. When your daughters have their cycling shoes on those bikes will probably fit them nicely. BTW, how did a guy that tall get kids that small?
