Forget paying them to listen to you.

If someone talks back, slap them, especially if it's a girl.

That will get their attention.

Yeah, you seem WAAAAAAAYYYYY too wrapped up in giving out some sort of prize.  If you don't think you can make it interesting, it'll come through, and that's exactly what you sound like right now.  "I think they'll dismiss me so I want something to bribe them with for their attention".

Figure out some way to tie your job into computer games, MAME if you so desire, and go with it.  Kids KNOW computer games.  What they won't know is what might go into that game, the thing you want to talk about. 
You’re always in control of your behavior. Sometimes you just control yourself
in ways that you later wish you hadn’t

Stop being so sour and dour.  You aren't going to make us cower.  You don't have that much power.

Haul your mame cab onto your car, show them the stuff, get them hooked.

12 x 25 x 18 quarters avg per kid = lots of dough for you.
