Peppa Pig -

Mummy Pig had an idea. "Let’s play a game. The rain is our river. The sofa cushions are our stepping stones. We have to cross the living room without touching the carpet."

"Today," said Daddy Pig, "we are going on a special trip to the new Dino-Discovery Adventure Park! There are giant dinosaur slides and a fossil digging pit!"

"Oh dear," said Mummy Pig, looking at the car window. "The radio says the Dino-Discovery Adventure Park is closed because of the thunderstorm."

And they all jumped in one last, happy muddy puddle—right on the carpet, which Mummy Pig said was "quite enough adventure for one day." Peppa Pig

When plans change and you feel disappointed, you can still create your own fun with imagination and the people you love. You don’t always need a ticket to a special place to have a special day.

"It’s not fair," Peppa grumbled, looking out at the gray rain.

It was a bright, sunny morning. Peppa Pig was jumping in muddy puddles in her red boots when Daddy Pig came out with a big map. Mummy Pig had an idea

They packed a picnic, buckled their seatbelts in the little blue car, and set off. Peppa was so excited she could hardly sit still. But after ten minutes of driving, the sky turned dark. Drip. Drop. Splash. It started to rain. Then it poured.

Back at home, Peppa sat on the sofa, bored. "There’s nothing to do," she moaned.

"Hooray!" squealed Peppa and George. George loved dinosaurs more than anything. The sofa cushions are our stepping stones

Soon, the whole living room was a Dino-Discovery Adventure Park of their very own. They had puddle-jumping contests in the hall (using imaginary rain), dinosaur footprint races, and even a picnic on the rug under a "shelter" made of blankets.

Daddy Pig parked the car. "Sometimes," he said, "we can’t change the weather, but we can change what we do."

Peppa’s happy smile turned upside down. "But I wanted to see the giant dinosaur slide!" she huffed, crossing her front legs. George began to whimper. "Dine-saw…"

"Daddy," she said, hugging his big round tummy. "We didn’t get to go to the Dino Park. But we made our own adventure. And it was even better because we did it together."
