Okay, I'm biased b/c I have one, but...
what about a mini dachshund? They LOVE attention (which kids LOVE to give to pets!), and they are definitely very playful. The only problem is they're so short, sometimes it's hard to see them and they can get stepped on or kicked easily (my Jasmine used to get kicked daily when she was a tiny puppy - I felt so bad!). But kids are more down to their size, so it shouldn't be as much of a problem.
Jasmine LOVES having my nephews and niece over to play w/ her. Whenever I go home to Florida, we'll usually have my niece come over and "puppy-sit" for us. She loves being chased by the kids, and she'll chase them in turn (which of course they love). The only thing is that you have to make sure w/ dachshunds that you show the children the proper way to hold them and carry them b/c of their backs (of course, you would want to do this w/ any dog).
