We bought this jar full, but you could also make your own. All you need is plastic Easter eggs, rice, and some tape (to make sure they don't break open).
Either give one to each child and let them shake the BEAT....
OR you could let 3-5 children come up for each song and shake the beat. I like to only pick certain kids to come up to the front each time. Before the song I will say something like, "I'll be watching to see who is singing their best so that I can pick helpers for the next song". This is so that the children sing well each song because they never know who I will pick. Tricky tricky thinking, but you have to do that sometimes as chorister ;)
Which songs do you use the shakers for?
