A story of a frog
Hi.
There was an interesting english test to translate a piece using as many colloquialisms as possible.
Please, share your opinion and corrections.
-------------------------
1. There is a fog hopping over there. It almost reached the pong but suddenly it was eaten by a snake.
2. Poor frog! If only it knew a snake would be ambushing it there, it would have never gone to that place.
3. On the other hand, it had already spent half a day looking for some water basin, if failed, it would have died of dehydration anyway. The sun was scorching since morning!
4. Even schoolchildren know frogs can't live without water. For millions of years they live and reproduce in water.
5. Sometimes though, they go out to hunt insects on soil. Usually at humid nights.
6. Who would have thought, that a frog could be such an easy prey! Usual business though: the big always eat the small.
7. And here is our snake, lying under the stone. After a good meal it is resting in a cool place and propably dreaming of cathing another couple of stupid frogs, which are bound to appear pretty soon.
-------------------------
1. Вон лягушка поскакала в ту сторону. Не успела она добраться до пруда, как её тут же уж и слопал.
2. Бедная лягушка! Ах, если бы она знала, что эта змея будет её там поджидать, она бы никогда не поскакала в те края.
3. Но с другой стороны она уже полдня искала какой-нибудь водоём, и если бы она его не нашла, она бы просто умерла от обезвоживания. Солнце с утра так сильно палило!
4. Даже школьник знает, что лягушки не могут жить без воды. Миллионы лет они живут в воде и там же размножаются.
5. Иногда, правда, они выползают на землю, чтобы поохотиться на насекомых. Как правило, в ночное влажное время.
6. Ну, кто бы мог подумать, что эта лягушка станет такой легкой добычей! Хотя дело обычное: большие всегда едят маленьких.
7. А вот и ужик наш лежит под камушком. Сытно поев, он сейчас покоится в прохладном месте и, возможно, мечтает поймать ещё пару глупых лягушек, которые обязательно вот-вот появятся.

Cartoon or animations?
What is the best way to say it?
Here is the concept: when a child buys an ice cream, there is a QR code inside a pack, by scanning this QR code with a special application a child can watch a 3D cartoon/animations.
Should the pack say: An ice cream with cartoon
OR
An ice cream with animations?
Which one is better?

Sell like buns\do this up\cue the track\ - please help to understand
The video to understand a situation:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bw012JATRZ8
The dialogue starts at 13:10
My questions:
1. Shantae says: Second, a Squid Baron spin-off game would only appeal to a subset of the same audience, so it’s gonna sell like buns!
But the second part defies logic. If the game will be bought by only a small number of people it will not "sell like buns", it would be a failure, that's why Hypno Baron says: "How embarrassing."
Am I right?
2. - Let’s do this up all crazy style! (What does "do this up" means in this context?)
- Cue the funky boss track and come at me! ("Cue the funky boss track" - ????)
I'll be much oblidged for explanations.

Lucky, the rabbit. (Please, correct)
Please, correct if you find any weird or unnatural phrasing. Thanks!
---------------------
Meet Lucky the rabbit! Like all the children in the morning he diligently makes his bed and does morning exercises. Morning exercises are very good for your body! (In my opinion too many morinings here, any way to avoid?)
Lucky loved sweets! Especially candies. He didn't know that it was harmful for his teeth to eat a lot of sweet things.
Lucky loved sweets so much he couldn't help without them even when he went for a walk. He had tons of sweets in his pocket.
Because Lucky ate so many sweets but rarely brushed teeth, germs made them their home. But worry not, a toothpaste can drive them away!
Now Lucky knows how to get rid of germs! He eats much less candies now.
Lucky started to eat a lot of vegetables and his teeth stopped aching! All thanks to eating healty food like cabbages, carrots and berries rather than candies and cakes!
Lucky takes care about his teeth! And he can teach you too! Watch this animation, Lucky will explain how to properly brush your teeth!
