I cannot give you any information or recommendation for inflatable
kayaks. But as you are searching for a family recreation type of boat, a
folding boat might be an option for you.

Depending on whether you want to do whitewater or calm tours on lakes
you can choose your favourite model. In general these boats are wider
than standard kayaks - thus it is also harder to keel over. In addition
you can take more luggage with you in folding boats.

Some well known brands are e.g. Klepper and Pouch. IIRC the website
http://www.poucher-boote.de contains prizes and information on the
components of these boats.
