I took lots of pictures of little kids back when my daughters {now both twenty-somethings} were little. I was using MF much of that time. I have never been a fan of "subject isolation", so my method was very basic - instead of my then-usual dependance on Kodachrome 25, I got a reasonably high-speed film, set shutter speed at something like 1/250 {my experience was that this speed was enough to "stop" virtually all relevant activity from the film pov}, and let DOF encompass as much of the likely field-of-activity as possible.
added: this mindset is why I believe the K-70 is a step in exactly the right direction for parents who want to capture indoor sports but blanch at the $$$$ cost of a constant f/2.8 lens they may never use after this season.
