Jump rope



         


Jump rope is a game played primarily by children and primarily by girls in which one or more children jump over a spinning rope so that it passes under their feet and over their heads. This may consist of one child twirling and jumping the rope, or at least three children taking turns, two of which twirl the rope while one jumps. If the latter is played with two twirling ropes, it is called double dutch, and is significantly more difficult.

Participants may simply jump until they tire and/or make a mistake, they may improvise tricks, or they may have to carry out a predetermined sets of tricks. Adults generally jump rope solo for the exercise.
