they can't hop around that way... they just drag themselves around by their wimply little front legs

Or you can toss them inside a bag, and place them in a freezer for 5 minutes. They will slow down. (Be sure to have them properly gutloeaded before feeding however).

Put food into the cricket container before you put the crickets in. They quiet down once they find the food, because they're usually famished after coming from the petstore.
