Hi and welcome to eslHQ and the world of teaching English!
4 to 7 is quite a range. do you have them all in the same class or different classes?
for the younger ones, i'd try SuperTots. It has a lot of fun activities.
You should take a look at MES English (www.mes-english.com), which has a lot of useful material and ideas for children's classes. You should also take a look at ESL Teacher Talk (ESL Teacher Talk), a site with podcasts on teaching. They've had a few talks about lessons for children.
Ultimately, I think you want to choose fun activities that have the kids moving around. Objects, colors, and simple introductions and/or sentences will go over better with their attention spans than any grammar explanations or long sentence structures. Consider how many children will be in the class, too.
Good luck!
