Trying not to judge you for having so many kids, but I have to say I am constantly amazed by folks that do so in this day and age.
What do you mean be "keep their hands to their self"? Simply touching, or are they hitting one another? What is wrong with touching? Regardless, you get them to behave the same way you get them to do or not do anything else -- first a warning, followed by immediate and unambiguous negative reinforcement (punishment) as a consequence of their bad behaviors (with an explanation for why you did what you did)... and don't forget to also give positive reinforcement for their good behaviors.

You need to teach them about personal space and manners. It's rude to constantly be touching someone else. Actually, this conversation should have started as soon as they were old enough to walk and talk. Just keep reminding them to keep their hands off each other and it eventually may rub off on them.
