I would probably get an entry permit when I visit HK on my own and visa for the kids. Is it difficult to get a multiple entry visa to China?

Thanks in advance!
According to the Shenzhen Metro website, about 16 minutes including transfer.
Board Luobao Line, Chegongmao station transfer to the Longhua Line, Futian Checkpoint.

I thought that if you had the magic HK Residency Card, all you need to do is flash and dash at the border (no visa required)? If your kids have US passports, best to get visas before leaving. All of them are US$140, whether single, double or multiple entry. Not sure how difficult it is to get a multiple entry visa with other passports...
