clatterers

Those making racket

Clatterers are people or things that clatter—making loud, rattling noises like hard objects striking each other repeatedly.

The word often describes noisy groups: The clatterers in the kitchen finally quieted down.

It can suggest disruptive commotion or simply lively activity.
