As to OP's experience, it sure seems like kids/toddlers playing in the aisle would be a safety issue; mostly for the kids. What would happen if the plane hit some CAT? I'm surprised that the FAs let this go on for more that a couple of minutes.
Planes used to have double the staff. FAs carry more workload than ever before. The reality with airline budgets, the FAs tend to focus on service delivery, and may genuinely do not know that there is a problem until a few minutes later. Generally, the FAs ime will address the problem in full detail once it comes to their attention.
