I like the sunflower idea. I would also like to suggest zinnia. They are quick to germinate and flower in about six weeks. Kids won't get bored waiting for either of these flowers.
Good luck with your flowers.

One of my fondest memories as a child was planting sunflower seeds mid-summer and watching them grow taller than me by autumn. We harvested the whole sunflower heads once they went to seed, dried them out and put them out for the birds in the dead of winter. It was great fun to not only care for them growing, but also to see how many birds they attracted during the winter.

Marigolds are an easy seed to start, and to take care of.
