Neighborhood block party

We have a neighborhood party every year, and last year, I was nominated to host it this year. The summer has come and gone and now I was reminded of the party. We usually have it at someone's house, and everybody brings their own meat to grill and a salad/dessert to share. My question is, since it's getting more into fall, what about a soup party? Everyone brings a different kind of soup. I will provide the bowls and crackers/bread? I am mostly concerned about the kids...how many kids will go for something like this? My kids eat certain kinds of soup and usually love it, but nothing out of the ordinary.
