One click, one notch
A lawn sprinkler is ticking across the grass. Every time Pi pushes a click, it jumps a notch. So Pi plays a tune on it, faster and faster, until it spins into a white water umbrella. One big push, and it pops out of the lawn and flies over the house, raining on the whole street. The hose yanks it back, right over Pi's head. One small push, and it steps aside.
Music: Rain, Rain, Go Away (17th-century English nursery rhyme, public domain), own arrangement.
