Published in The Washington Times, December 03, 1922, this acrobatic frog paper cutout project would keep kids busy for hours back in the old days.

The instructions read:
Cut out the two sides of the frog and paste them together, with a cardboard in between. After pasting the two sides back to back, with the cardboard in between, cut the inside contours, such as between the legs and the arms. Then punch out the holes for the string and fasten the string to a small stick to complete the trapeze. Hold the frog by this stick as you make him go through his performance. Besides the two ways of hanging from the trapeze shown in the sketches, he can also bend his body and hook on by one leg. Or he may slide up and down, with the string passing through those places marked with Xs.
