  1. Jump Rope Games

  2. Jump Rope • The history of jump rope activities traces as far back as 1600 A.D. from paintings that show children jumping rope on European cobblestone streets. Jumping rope began as a boys' only game. When American girls began to play this sport, they added rhymes and sing-song games. • Many of these rhymes were passed down from generation to generation; others were written down. Boys, at first, didn’t chant rhymes, but rather held contests to see who could make the most jumps. • Skipping rope didn't not become a favorite past-time for American girl’s until the 1830’s.

  3. Jumping Rope and social interaction • Jumping rope requires much cooperation and social interaction. Turners and jumpers must cooperate with each other in order to be successful with their sport. The chanting of rhymes while all the jumping occurs fosters social interaction.

  4. American folk Rhymes • Many of the American folk rhymes used for jumping rope are considered mini-dramas, complete with antagonism and aggression. But, most of these rhymes are merely exaggerations meant to tease on another about boyfriends, to brag about skills, or to challenge one another with the number of jumps that can be done. The teasing or bragging is done in fun, and at the time encourages the social skills of the children.

  5. Length of the Rope • An individual jump rope should be long enough to reach from your armpits to the floor when folded in half. A jump rope used for three or more players (two turners and a jumper) should be ten feet long.

  6. Skipping Terms • Salt – Turn the rope slowly • Mustard or Vinegar – Turn the rope at a normal speed. • Pepper- Turn the rope as fast as you can. • Bluebells or rock the cradle – Swinging the rope from side to side but not all the way around. • High Water – hold the rope high so it does not touch the ground as you turn it. • Low Water – Crouch down and turn the rope so the skipper must skip in a crouched position. • Chase the fox – Everyone follows the leader, who runs in and out of the rope. • Under the Moon – Players Run under the turning rope without skipping. • Over the stars – Players run and jump over the rope.
