You might consider Falmouth. It is not as romantic or wild as the outer cape but it is a decent spot for kids. The water will be cold in June, even in Buzzards Bay. If your kids want to swim and play, you are looking for an estuary next to the beach. Woodneck Beach in Falmouth is such a place. The water heats during the day and is very warm coming out of the saltmarsh. Every little kid in town wades around in the outflow with a net catching crabs and minnows. The ice cream truck shows up as well. You can sneak away for a few hours at dawn and plug the rocks, decent fish will be moving through then. At night you can fish the outflow itself. The beach in front of Woodneck is shallow and has waves to play in. Old Silver in N falmouth is another good kids beach. There is an aquarium in Woods Hole, and a fish hatchery in Sandwich that are good day trips. Plenty of play grounds (Goodwill park has a swimming and trout pond in it as well) Good bike path nearby. Plenty of family friendly restaurants and ice cream shops.
