TL;DR
Take motion sickness/anti-nausea pills before boarding, kids can take them too, and sit on the upper deck in the first row facing the horizon.
Try to sit on the upper deck in the first row — looking at the horizon and getting fresh air helps with seasickness. In bad weather even people on deck get sick, so avoid the lower deck entirely.
For adults, a glass of wine or beer before boarding can help with seasickness.
Give kids motion sickness pills before the ferry — they handle the trip fine, though they'll be drowsy for the rest of the day.
Definitely bring anti-nausea pills for the ferry — many passengers get badly seasick during the crossing.
