I don't think there's one right answer here; a lot of different methods might work, and you'll have to find the one that suits your situation best. Personally, I'm a strong advocate of teaching by example. Talk is cheap, but if you make the conscious choice to be a positive role model for them and actually show them right and wrong through your actions every day, you may make an impact.
The other side is to keep in mind that you can only show them the path, and it's up to them to decide whether or not to follow it.
