Google SketchUp tutorials. There are a number of really good sites.
Sketchucation and Go2School are two of the better ones. Show the
kiddies how to do a SU photo match of their building and they'll be
hooked.

Thank you for the links. I'm sold (on SketchUp)--especially on the free
version. : )

By the way, I'm planning to give a 50 minute presentation in the
computer lab of my school next semester introducing students and other
folks to SketchUp. My skills are far from knowing how to "do everything"
with it, like Leon and Swingman do, but I think my technique is good
enough to "sell" it. Incidentally, if anyone has any resources handy,
like an outline or handouts, that I may find helpful for this, please
let me know.
