All the above info is great.
A sled really helps. Not saying a home made condo is needed but simply a sled. Most plastic kids sleds will do, but I have found there are better optons like a "calf sled" or cement tub with ropes. And dont forget the food. When not fishing the kids (and you) should be eating. Some sort of grill/fire pail is great for marshmellows and hot dogs on a stick, but coleman stove and or simply thermos with hot soup in it is OK too if traveling light.
Wax worms and jigging pole. I buy my wax worms at Pet Smart but if you are getting Minnows anyways then you can get them at the B&T. Little ice jigs work very well and I love catching bluegills and crappie all day, teh kids will too.
ICE PICKS. These go around your neck and essentially are spikes in case you fall in. I never have, but these will make it much easier to pull out if it ever were to happen.
CAMERA. I have a ton of great family phots from growing up out on the ice and cabnt wait till my sons are old enough.
