I am looking for recommendations on interesting routes to cross Pennsylvania from east to west with a nice overnight stop somewhere in the middle of the state. We're traveling with children ages 4 - ...

One route to consider is US 30, the Lincoln Highway. It crosses the southern part of Pennsylvania.
You can stop at the Amish sites in the Lancaster area.
Gettysburg for the Battlefield and town sites.
There are several CG's in the Gettysburg area and the Chambersburg area.
The Flight 93 Memorial is just off US 30 at Shanksville.
US 30 is a nice drive. However, I recommend avoiding US 30 between Chambersburg and Breezewood. It's 2 lane, mountains and curves.
Taking the PA Turnpike is the best way to avoid this section of 30.
The tolls on the turnpike are expensive.
