A good rub down with sandpaper or a wire brush to remove any loose bits, and provide a good "key" for the paint.
Undercoat next. Colour will depend on what the final colour will be. Maybe a mid-grey for a compromise. Plain white u/c if you don't have any other.
Any good exterior paint, such as "Weathershield" gloss. I've never heard of it in test pots though. Maybe another brand would have them.
With different colours, you won't need much paint for each. It could be quite expensive.
Think about going to Halford's and looking at car colours in aerosols. A lot easier to apply as well.
Don't let the kids spray each other though ;o)
