Since all concerned parties have consented to sign the conveyance deed it is very good and safe. However since two persons involved are minors there names may be included duly rep by their natural guardian, father or mother as the case may be. This way you will eliminate any chances of anybody laying a claim in the future.
Also kindly mention in the conveyance deed that the sale is being done for the benefit of minor children and in the interest of securing their bright future. this should suffice
