No need to recreate the wheel; here's A-Z Home's Cool Homeschooling page on the Renaissance for Kids, a linked page from Social Studies for kids, Yahooligans' cool links including an animated trip through the Renaissance, and a good written (but not too detailed) general overview from KidsPast.
As for activities, check out this truly extensive page from ProTeacher, more cool ideas from eHow (like making your own candles), a looong page on links to the Middle Ages in general, another thoroughly reviewed and choosy set of links from Surfnetkids.com, and a fun (washable) stained-glass activity that pre-K and up will love, I think.
Not really related to the Renaissance but a cool video just the same: How to Draw from Mission: Renaissance.
