This one works almost every time on the under 10 crowd and stops working for teenagers. If you know the kid - your own kid, a family member's kid, or kid from friend of family - it's easy to get engagement. Walk up to the kid so they see you approach, tap them lightly on the shoulder/elbow and say somewhat lounder than normal:
"You're it!"
Then slowly jog away. Never underestimate how much kids love tag. Very good chance they're going to chase you so that they aren't "it" any longer. Let the games begin.
