Sallam 'lekum NK2013.
I offer another vote for the train. I travelled your exact route last week, and while it does drag on a bit it is infinitely more enjoyable than driving. If you travel 1st class, there are six seats (three each side) per compartment, so you may even wish to pay for all six seats so that your children could stretch out for a snooze, play games, do drawing etc.

Happy travels NK2013. I forgot to mention that there is usually a trolley food service during the train ride, offering such 'delicacies' as bland cheese baguette sandwiches, Pringles, Kit-Kats and tea, coffee & bottled water. You are allowed to bring your own food and drink on-board. There are toilets at the end of each carriage, that are usually somewhere nearing clean and use-able.

I did it by car and loved the freedom of stopping off where ever I wanted. We even stopped in the Atlas mountains to give a load of small children a lift to school! They walk 5 miles a day for an education - amazing.
