I am going to be trying my hand at being the DM for a family group. The players will be a mixture of adults and teens, with varying degrees of DnD experience. I am looking for recommendations on the best pre-written campaigns for such a group and for myself being a fledgling DM.
Thank you for any input and recommendations you may have.
Any of the starter adventures will work. There is lost mine of phandelver. Dragons of icespire peak. Stormwreck isle. Each is a good set. They have a free intro to storm wreck ilse which i believe has the first one or two encounter of that starter set. The dragons of icespire ( essentials set) has three continuation adventures that follow it.

It really depends on what kind of adventure you're after. What genre you like, what kind of things in the game interest you, and so forth.
I haven't tried Dragons of Stormwreck Isle, but I found Lost Mine of Phandelver problematicnas a new DM. Dragon of Icespire Peak was good for us but lacked narrative. Neither are deal breakers, but they're not perfect either.
The only one I'd turn you away from is Rime of the Frost maiden. The beginning is awesome and we loved it...but the style has an identity crisis, and after chapter two, it morphs into a style that's very hard to make fun without a lot of skilled work.
The others I've either not played or though were pretty good or would work for you.

The Heroes on the Borderland come with lots of interesting props, cards, maps, tokens etc...
