Hello Simon,
The ones that work:
http://gallery.leica-users.org/album133/jet1
and
http://gallery.leica-users.org/album133/jet2
and
http://gallery.leica-users.org/album133/jet4
have a point of focus that draws you into the image.  Jet 1 could be
improved by cropping a square of just your daughter.  The point of that
is get closer.  These three show a young person really have the time of
her life and the image sucks you into her joy.

Most of the others do not have a focal point that draws you in.  This
one:
http://gallery.leica-users.org/album133/zeehond1
is a prime example.  You have documented the scene fairly well, but
there is too much image.  If the image was of just the handler and the
seal, with both in sharp focus then the image would have worked much
better.

Overall, a fairly strong group of images.  I think the success rate is
higher because you are not pushing the limits of the envelope (A
Noctilux with 3200iso film at one second at F1 with a gyro).  Also,
there is that family attraction that improves anyone's images.

I hope this is helpful.
