Never underestimate how cool explosives can be to a three year old. We've been kicking around the idea of forming a preschool model rocket club, but then we realized that all the other parents would be aghast - and we have a pretty bad track record anyway. The rockets are simple Estes kits from Michael's with standard Estes engines - we used B6 engines in ChaseKBH's Estes Riptide. There's not a ton of ability to customize the outside of these rockets, but putting them together is maybe a five minute job, and a reasonably dexterous three year old can handle it with minimal parental assistance.
