Pip the pig looked out at the rain. "I can not go out and play," he said with a sad face. He wanted to run and jump, but the rain fell and fell. Pip sat on the rug and felt glum.
Then Pip had a plan. He used his brain! He grabbed his best train. "I will make a track in here," he said. He took a long, plain box and laid it on the rug. The box made a fine main track. Pip pushed his train. It went fast! His little tail gave a quick wag. The rain could not stop his fun.
Use ai in the middle of a word. Use ay at the end of a word.
