Munchkin brand spout guard mod

Munchkin brand spout guard mod
For my sons first birthday he got a Munchkin brand spout guard in the shape of a fire duck.  This duck goes over the bathtub spout so that the baby does not crack his head on the hard, sharp spout. 

After I installed the thing I noticed a problem.  I realized that you could not pull on the diverter to divert the water flow to the shower head.  This is my solution to this issue.

Plan of action
This is the plan.  If you look at this duck you will notice that it has a fire hat.  This hat is on a hinge and can open and close.  Inside there is a little chamber with a small hole at the bottom.  The directions say that this chamber is for soap.  The soap will drip down to the water flow and create the bubbles.  This did not work very well and I prefer to put the soap right in the water anyway. 

The first step is to remove the bottom of the chamber so the diverter can be reached.  I then noticed that there is not enough room to get to the diverter to pull it up.  An idea of attaching a string to the plunger to pull it up and then to use one finger to knock the plunger back down again.  Lets see if this will work.
