I was wondering does this work in reverse? i.e. for my two children and myself, can we join my wife through the China nationals queue and clear immigration as a family? or do we need to split up so that my children and I go through the foreigners queue for immigration and my wife goes through the Chinese nationals for immigration.

Thanks
Yes, last week as I was entering China through PEK I was explicitly told to go to the Chinese nationals' line next time as my children held Chinese Travel Documents.
