As far as possible, avoid taking children to funerals. Not only because children being children will not understand the seriousness of the situation and will run around playing and demanding everyone's attention but also for psychological reasons. Seeing death at a young impressionable age can adversely affect a child. This may not only give rise to several questions in a child's curious mind but make him scared too.
So it is better to leave children at home. If the tragedy has occurred in your own house, leave the kids either with one of your relatives or with neighbours where they can be looked after properly, fed on time and kept away from the mourning atmosphere.
However, do explain to your child what death is and explain that aunty or uncle has gone away forever or has been called by God.
