Really should learn the names of flowers 😬 am sure the patch of green leaves are wild garlic, not sure about the white flowers tho

White flowers are Snow Drops ( Galanthus nivalis) sometimes called Fair Maids of February. If you are in doubt about the Wild Garlic, the broad green leaves in the photo, just pick half a leaf and mash it up in your hand and the smell will tell you.
Later the Wild Garlic will show a white flower too but a different shape to the Snow Drops.

Next time out you can warn the little one with advice that Snow Drop bulbs look like tiny crunchy Onions and are poisonous...well, they contain Alkaloids which will cause painful upset stomach problems if eaten in quantity. Poisonous to animals certainly, that's why they thrive in such numbers instead of being munched by Deer/ Rabbits and the like.

Nice photos and great to see the little one out enjoying the freedom. 👍
 
Great to see you getting out Mark and with the company of your little girl. Kids absolutely love the outdoors and especially with burgers to eat.
Nice pictures Mark thanks for sharing.:)
 
The wee one's fringe has grown back well...
It's great to see you're both making the most of your beautiful landscape Mark 👍
