How long is a piece of string? I usually get 365 day plans with around 100gb of data for around $120. But I'm on wifi most places I go and tend to use about 20gb of mobile data annually. EDIT: I buy my phones outright, but you're asking about SIMs. If your kids go through the 100gb of data quickly, you can always buy another 365 sim, possibly with a larger data amount.
