Usually the most cost effective way to get around Israel is to join a tour group like a Church tour to Israel or a organized Israel tour from your home country . The main problem with that will be that depending on the ago of your kids, not all such tours are as welcoming to kids or at least are not geared to provide the kids their own attention and some special activities built around the tour.

It is highly recommended to speak with your tour leader or tour host and find out if the tour can accommodate your kids and what if any is going to be special for the kids. It is also worth mentioning that not all hotels used by tour groups will be the best option in terms of family rooms or suites.
