I think you should follow the rules on this.
Faking happens. I realize that with kids you might want to be careful, but just because a kid falls down does not mean they are seriously hurt. I officiate football and I do not see very many serious injuries with kids during basketball. If anything they might strain an ankle or knee, but that is about as serious as it gets. And just like anything, you can use judgement. But I would not stop every play until a fast break is stopped, or the injured player's team has control of the ball. I have seen kids fall down and you think they got shot, next possession or next opportunity they are running like nothing happen. The rules are laid out for a reason. Players do fake injuries.
Peace
