How awesome that two publishers have approached you! That’s great and well WORTH considering. There are benefits to going either way.
It’s good to be aware that a publisher will require a signed contract. So, once you sign a contract, self-publishing is no longer likely to be an option. If you don’t want to take the length of time needed for traditional publishing, it’s worth considering self publishing.

Love CBI. . .great people and such a great resource but I must admit, haven’t been active in their online community in a while. Thank you so much for this self-publishing info page and Finding an Agent. So well laid out and helpful.

I’ve been approached by two publishers who want me to be a “contributing author” in the publishing of my first Children’s book, so it does make me think if going traditional takes too long, self-publishing might be an option worth considering.
