There is a poem each day for that day’s ushpizin. The trick is that each line has a spot for the reader to pause and the kids (and adults) can call out the next word.
Leader reads each verse aloud, pausing for the participants to call out the final word in brackets.

Day One: Avraham and the Baal Shem Tov
Every day of Sukkos, we celebrate with joy and zest
And each night we invite in another special [guest]
The first visitor whom in we usher
Was known as a child as an idol [crusher]
Avraham welcomed guests from near and far
His tent had four doors, just like a [car]
Everyone could come for a snack and a rest
As long as in the end, Hashem was [blessed]
The other visitor whom we invite today
Was known in his youth as a digger of [clay]
His service of Hashem was warm like a stove
Today’s Chassidishe ushpiz is the Baal Shem [Tov]
He taught us to love every single Jew
Even if they know much less than [you]
If there is one lesson our guests can leave behind
It’s that we should all be very nice and [kind]
