Ideally I would be looking a ticket for a 12year old and an adult that would allow us to travel from, say, paddington to the london eye and just in general float around without having to pay every time.

Your daughter can get a one day travelcard for £1 but she must always travel with you. You can get either an Oystercard for PAYG where the cost will be MAXIMUM of 50pm less than the cost of a one day card or a Paper Travelcard which would entitle you to use offers on www.2for1entry.co.uk - it might be worth while claiming your daughter is an adult when you enter sights just to save a LOT of money

Hi
The tube is not segmented into area codes but zones, and this was brought in to simplify things.

Basically get an oyster card which is a touch and go payment system. You can load it with money and/or other products such as the travelcard. Paying with an oyster card means you know you will never be charged more than a certain amount in a day and its very reasonable if you use it for several journeys.
