I checked Class A's, B's and C's and found the Class B's and C's were not comfortable for me, but the DH and I are over 50. I did not like having to take a big step up or down to go from cab to coach and vice versa. We both have vision problems, especially if we have taken off the glasses.
With the children being that age, they will have to be buckled into car seats in the back and your DW will have to be with them instead of with you in the front.
Our Class A 2002 Winnebago Brave 35' on a Workhorse chassis is great. There is no step from the front to the coach so DW can keep an eye on them buckled into car seats on the couch. You might need to figure out a gate to keep the kids from falling down the stairs when you are stationary. It will be easier with potty training since you can pull over at a rest area or parking lot and not have to worry about them running away from you when you are trying to get them to the potty.
Take DW with you to a RV store. Check around and see. Also, go to a family RV park and talk to people with young kids to get an idea of what is easier, etc.
If wife wonders if she can drive a class A, it is not hard, just need to find a parking lot and practice. I never drove one until we bought ours in 2009. Practice makes perfect.
Let us know what you decided, found, etc. If it is possible, rent an A and a C and see what works better.
