Have them judged by you and give out prizes for the first 4-5 winners. If you were willing to take on a contest of this nature, I would donate 100.00 dollars to the cause for first place.

P.S. This is really kool. It's a brain storm...lol! And God Bless you. 
I love what you are doing. It is so cool!
the idea is awesome, the problem is kits are fairly hard to find these days unless you search a certain auction site. We have started a "friendly" Kinser Build Off over at the ScaleSprints message board. Would be great to get more people/kids involved with that possibly.
