In my experience, the last one is a little uncommon - but certainly not bad. What a beautiful day it is today! What beautiful weather we're having today!

Thank you for your answer.

What about “How clever the children are!” and “What clever children!”? Is any difference between them? And which of them is more common?

There's not much difference. The first one would be more likely to be said after just observing some act of cleverness. Maybe.
