Well, the biggest piece of advice I can give is don't make your OCs the centre of the story, and don't make them save the day or make everything turn out good because of them. They're kids, not gods, and the world doesn't work to their whims. Don't have them know something they shouldn't simply because you wrote them, and if they do know something the others don't have it for a believable reason, not just "the bad guys were stupid enough to talk about it in a public place like the library".
