Sure, have a light or sound go off, them have them press a button. Time each result to check reaction speeds. Then have them do things like press the button with their foot to see how much slower they are (due to the increased circuit length from brain to foot.) Then have them stand in a line. The person in the back listens or watches for the signal, then taps the next person on the shoulder, and they repeat this all the way to the last person who hits the button. You can divide them into teams and keep score.
We did some of these in a class I taught. We also made a starting light and raced and timed lego cars down a ramp. They had a lot of fun. Once they are having fun, you can really teach them all kinds of stuff! (friction, slope, gravity, etc)
