Welcome to BFT. From the picture it appears to be a whitefish but it is hard to tell. Whitefish can be good, but like others have said, a bit boney.
The #1 tip for fishing with kids is don't try to fish while your fishing with kids. Just concentrate on them. This is an inbetween time for kid fishing. Ice fishing is mostly over and the rivers are starting to run high.
As someone else pointed out birch creek can be great. Check the traditional stocking reports and try to time your trip. The rexburg nature pond is also a great place to take kids after it is stocked. The Mctucker ponds can be good. The Crystal Springs pond, warm river, the North Fork Near the Ashton Bridge... There are many great kids places just need to keep investigating and find out how they all work.
Start by checking the family fishing waters in the proclamation.
