"بچهها بیرون هستند" (Bacche-hā birun hastand) means "The children are outside." بچهها is بچه ("child") plus the plural suffix -hā, and هستند is the third-person plural of "to be" — both plural markers, on the noun and the verb, are required in Persian even though English only needs one ("children are," not "childs is").
Where English speakers slip
Don't confuse this با داخل ("inside") — بیرون is its opposite, "outside." Also make sure the "oo" in -run is held long; clipping it short can make the word harder to catch in fast speech.
