HOW TO PLAY
1

Two players hold the ends of the long rope and swing it in a steady, even rhythm.

2

A jumper times their entry to start hopping over the rope as it passes beneath their feet.

3

The jumper keeps hopping continuously, sometimes adding footwork or turns while the rope keeps swinging.

4

If the jumper touches the rope or stops jumping, their turn ends and the rope passes to the next player.

5

For a group challenge, count how many turns of the rope each jumper survives and compare scores.
