Hansel & Gretel: A Frog Named Jacques

I've been working on puppets for a somewhat-improvised kids' show version of Hansel & Gretel. We've re-worked the story somewhat so the children go into the woods of their own accord to look for food and meet a variety of animals along the way, who offer their own particular (unappealing) foods. This is a frog they encounter in a particularly swampy bit of the forest who catches them some flies. The tongue is rigged so it pulls out of his throat, revealing three "flies"
attached with elastic thread.
