Fishing with worms or mealys is always best with the planter fish. At least in my experience I like to throw a worm on with some colored mallows or an egg or something to attract them. The rexburg ponds are a great place to ice fish as well. I just started this last winter and we would always catch at least 50 fish a day out there. Nothing too big (around 12-16") but constant action with just a small jig head and mealy worm.
Another fun place to fish with kids is Ririe Reservoir. I like to fish from the banks with a worm and a split shot about 12" above and just drag it through the rocks. The smallmouths in there are fun little fighters and always bring a
when they start jumping. Just make sure the water warms up a bit before heading out.
