Where will you be in Florida? Winter has the least reliable dive conditions and coolest water temps. Your youngest would have to be 10. The OW dives would take 2 days.
I would consider having all 4 do eLearning for the academics. PADI appears to cost $195 per student. I would find a good instructor to do the confined training and OW dives. SB members might be able to assist you in finding an instructor if your location in Florida was narrowed down. Perhaps the instructor would offer a discount for 4 students, that would be a nice size class. I would do it in the ocean if that is the type of diving you expect to do.
Good luck
