I'm no expert (I'm currently planning a trip to the area), but I think this plan is workable. Unfortunately, since I travel alone, I can't comment on whether it is sensible for a family.
I suspect that some people will recommend staying in either Lausanne or Geneva (but not both) and perhaps spending a bit less time in those 2 places and adding a day or two to the Bernese Oberland (Interlaken/Murren) or perhaps somewhere else. But it depends on what you want to see and experience.
BTW, I assume you mean that your initial flight is on 31 May?
Thanks Kja for the kind advice and will do so as suggested.
Yes our flight is on 31 May, sorry for the typo.
