If children are helping, you can just make a single layer right in the pan when cake has completely cooled.
Make sure to layer in this order for best result: cake, pudding, whipped topping, candy pieces.
OTHER IDEAS
Use brownies in place of cake
Sprinkle various types of candies according to occasion....pastel sprinkles for Easter, Red Hots in a heart shape for Valentines, etc.
