About 

Welcome to Toddler Approved! We are just having a little fun trying out some oldies, goodies, and new-to-us toddler activities each day. We will mostly just use items around the house or cheap supplies for our activities, so nothing we do will be too intricate.

We have been sharing fun ideas with one another for years over the phone as we've gone through all stages of life- dating, college, engagements, first jobs, marriage, and now, motherhood. Our main interest has always been trying to find ways to make life a little more fun and creative. We also love to embed language learning into everything we do. We are hoping to learn from you as well, so please pass along comments and ideas!

Here's a little bit more about us:

Kristina is the founder of Toddler Approved. She is a mom of two (a preschooler and a toddler) as well as a National Board certified teacher (in Special Education). Kristina retired from her job as a curriculum specialist and crisis intervention trainer in the Fall of 2011 and now loves being full-time mom to her kiddos. She loves chocolate, running, taking pictures, and party planning. She is also currently a kids crafts contributor at Quirky Momma and Life... Your Way.








E.J. is a creative and crafty mom of two (a preschooler and toddler). She is also an avid seamstress, baker, and health and fitness guru. When she is not teaching aerobics classes at the local YMCA, she is running Mommy & Me Book Club, or discovering the newest and coolest toys for her kids. Everyone that is around her wants to be a better mom, friend, or spouse. I am so grateful that she blogs alongside of me!
