Considering that you have a variety of bike styles I recommend a platform style carrier. the most popular option for the 2005 Honda Odyssey is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider # HR1400Z.

If either of the kids' bikes are smaller than a 20 inch then you would also need adapter # HRSW-ADP-2 to get them to fit the Sport Rider.

If you go with a hanging style carrier like the Parkway # TH956 then for the Trek Neko and possible the kids' bikes, you will need to use an adapter bar # 64005. For the Trek it will make it more level on the carrier. And it is possible, depending on the size of the kids' bikes, that you would not be able to load them without using an adapter bar. I have linked videos on the 2 platform carriers and the adapter bar for you.
