Personally I would never risk my children on a fast boat to the Gili in December. Even the large truck ferries are often cancelled that time of year due to EXTREMELY rough seas. Please don't do it.
You can fly, the trip from the airport to the harbour to Gili T is about 2 to 2.5 hours. The overall travel time from, say, Kuta to Gili T is slightly longer by air but also slightly cheaper.
