Bake cookies
Use simple, pictorial recipes and pre-measure all ingredients. After the cookie party, have kids seal the extra cookies in plastic bags. Take children to give the cookies to a shut-in, nursing home resident, or sick child.

Host a petting zoo
Parade of your favorite stuffed animals? Maybe a live pet show? 

Summer Outings
Go to the zoo, a children's museum, or a farm. Hold a day camp with planned activities such as crafts, cooking, games, and stories.

Promotion Sunday
Get an address list of unchurched preschoolers by asking young mothers for names of unchurched mothers of preschoolers they know. On the Saturday before preschoolers are promoted to their new Sunday school class, invite churched and unchurched preschoolers and their parents to Promotion Sunday. Have them come to their new Sunday school departments, meet their new teachers, and see what they'll be doing. Serve refreshments and give each child a school box and pencil.
