The rules are as follows;

We go through the alphabet by writing a sentence for each letter in turn. In this first challenge, we must write 1 word (no more, no less) which begins with the relevant letter. The sentences don't have to continue from each other, but they must be grammatically correct.

So, to begin;

I am interested in watching films. (only 1 word begins with the letter A)

Next try the letter B. Remember, exactly 1 occurrence is allowed in your sentence, neither more nor less.

(when we have completed the entire alphabet, we try again with 2 occurrences, and then 3, and so on... it get's harder each time)  Wink

I found a caterpillar in my vegetable bed yesterday so I introduced it to my chicken. They didn't like it.

Nice try you two, but remember to have exactly one occurrence only.

My daughter plays basketball but I don't know how to play it. (2 b's)

I found a caterpillar in my vegetable bed yesterday so I introduced it to my chicken. They didn't like it. (2 c's)

The road was all wet after it rained and I had to jump over many puddles while coming back home.
