Could be a number of reasons your cat won't use the litter box. You need one box per cat generally, so the first thing I would try is a second litter box.

You need to change them pretty regularly as well even with clumping litter. I would say once the litter starts getting low it's time to change it, don't just pour more litter in. You can make changing these out easier on yourself if you use cat litter pan liners if you're using a typical litter box. If the kittens tend to claw at the bags then its probably a good idea to double up on the liners. A regular drawstring liner first followed by an elastic non-slip liner over it that will help keep the kittens from pulling the bag off the box. Wipe down the box every time you're changing it as well.

Just make sure you're putting in enough litter as well in case one of the cats is a digger. Also make sure they have plenty of room to get in and out of the box and clean around it regularly. Consider a litter mat to catch loose litter. Litter on the floor may be hurting their paws while they're on the way to the box, which could make them turn around and use the corner instead.

A good cat litter to try if adding a second box doesn't work is Dr. Elsey's kitten attract litter if it's available where you live. I like this brand in general since there's basically no dust. The litter itself tends to be fine and soft, which may work better for your kittens.
