I have noticed that kids seem to like our 2007 robot quite a bit. My theory is that since it is only like 3ft tall, it isn't very imposing to them (about their height). Then it expands to 9ft tall and towers over everybody, especially them. So, I would try to build something a bit smaller than your average FRC robot if you're going after a younger crowd. An older crowd might appreciate something a little taller so they don't have to bend down so much to get a good look at it.
