Help! Need WS2812B Examples for Makers Day

My state (NJ) is having a statewide Makes Day at many local libraries throughout the state. I volunteered to demonstrate LED control using the Prop and Neopixels. I have several different Prop boards I'll be using along with several different size Adafruit Neopixels. I have two Jack-O-Lanterns I'll have on display I built using JonnyMac's example from Nuts and Volts magazine last year using Quick Start boards and Neopixels.
I'm going to setup a few other Props and was wondering if anyone has any cool and interesting WS2812B/Neopixels examples that they would be willing to share that I can demo? My plan is to also have a setup to show the youngsters how changing the values will change the output and let them try run an example.
Any words of wisdom? Thanks!

I'm working on a WS2812B based figure 8 slot car racetrack. It has 4 lanes, and you have to go less than half speed around the bends, and more than half speed around the loop-the-loop, or you crash and explode.
I'm trying to find some old style wirewound ozone generating triggers but haven't had luck so far. Backup plan is to make something from a wire wound pots
For bonus points I'm hoping to add 4 channel sound to pump into subwoofers attached to chairs or backpacks.
All the stuff for Neopixels that have been done in Tachyon Forth are totally interactive, change values, patterns, speed, brightness etc on the fly, whatever you want.
