It depends what your kids like.
Do they like nature, fun stuff, museums etc?

Any hotels that you can recommend?

I did a 2-night/3-day trip near Monsey. We went to the Double Tree in Nanuet. It was a different kind of trip, went with some friends when we just needed a quick cheap vacation. I could see it working very nicely for a family. It's around an hour from Brooklyn so you wouldn't need to travel that far Motzei Shabbos.
The hotel has a pool and fitness room which your kids would probably love. There's the Palisades mall with lots of fun attractions for kids; Escape rooms, Imax, bowling, race track, a really fun climbing/rope course. The mall itself could give you a full fun day. If you want some quality outdoor fun there's Haverstraw park, Also Piermont Piers were you take a mile walk through weeds onto a nice deck on the Hudson, plenty of options for biking and boating in the area. It's also really close to Bear Mountain.
Regarding food, the hotel we stayed in was literally 5-10 minutes from Monsey proper. We had so many options. If you go for milchigs I would recommend Primavera which has great upscale food in a nice atmosphere but still kid friendly enough to bring a family. If you prefer fleishigs there are many steakhouse options. We did Fireside. Not sure I'd feel comfortable sitting in with kids there (guess depends on family size/age of kids). There are also lots of more 'breakfasty' options and pizza places.
Whatever you do, have fun!
