R. Avrohom Schorr offers the following reminder in a Pesach letter:
Remember the mitzvah of v’hi’gad’ta l’vin’kha. Do not forget the little children when discussing commentaries on the Haggadah. Do not ignore the mitzvah of l’ma’an te’sa’per, narrating the plain story to attract the hearts of the children to belief in Hashem. According to the Sefer Ohev Yisrael, there is no time more auspicious than the Seder to inculcate emunah in Hashem to children.

Thanks for that Reminder.
I am doing a few small virtual Seders for people and i recorded parts of it being sung by my two young kids. Not only are they enthusiastic about Pesach (my 8 year old and 6 year old argue are there four questions or five hehe) BUT they were excited to record (loudly) parts of the Seder so they could share the mitzvah of their learning with others. Hopefully their little voices will give a good Pesach to someone who would otherwise be home bound!
