I'm not sure if they are planning on doing it this year, but in the past
they used to have "Big Wheel" drag races for the kids.  A couple little kids
on big wheels, they stage just like regular racers, watch the tree and then
go.  I think it's only a 50 yard race, though I do remember them chasing one
kid down that wanted to do the full length.

Obviously this won't keep them engaged for long, but it is a lot of fun to
watch (as I recall they have them wear helmets, etc.  Really cute.)

P.S. anybody else seen the state of the art Big Wheels they have out now?
Tubular steel frame, proper inflatable tires and front suspension.  A store
in town called "Big 5" carries these.
