Children are often happy to generate a sound altogether. This grows a sense of unity which is important especially in younger ages.
Try the easiest orchestration for the kids: When listening to this Catalan carol in class, clap three quarter-beats at the end of every line that says “fum fum fum”, or/and play a sound (e.g. triangle, tambourine, etc.) after that.
