Taveling With Kids
A rental van is a great idea - I would also suggest lots of snacks and drinks - have them help you pack the bag - that way when you stop for restroom trips - which their are bound to be many with three kids in the car - no matter what their ages - you won't have to fight over the snack shop items. Don't even let them go into the snack shop - each time it will tack on 1/2 hour to your trip if not more.
I would suggest some kind of DVD/ TV entertainment - If you don't own (iDon't) you can rent from a video store - on a weekly basis - its cheap - It can save you alot of headache.
Gameboy is also a great idea - I'm 32 and when even I travel with my husband or kids we take it with us.... it keeps my husband quiet and occupied for hours. I'll bet it will do the same for your kids.
Good Luck
