Broom-maker's kids, as in Humperdinck opera (6,3,6)

I believe the answer is:

hansel and gretel

(Other definitions for hansel and gretel that I've seen before include "18 [OPERA]" , "Witch-killing pair" , "children abandoned in forest" , "fairy tale" , "Fairy story" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
