Do you know the game &quot;Jump Rope&quot;?

Indonesia

February 28, 2023 6:56pm CST

Hello guys, good morning. How are you today? Have a nice day.

Now I will tell you about a game "Jump Rope". Jumping rope is one of the popular games in my childhood. Usually we play it in the afternoon after school.

This game can be played alone, 3 people with 1 jumper, 4 people with 2 jumpers, even more. This game activity is indeed quite draining but fun, therefore our childhood was rarely sick due to frequent activities outside the home.

Now tell me, do you know about this game? Is this game also famous in your country? Lets discuss here. Thank you.

No, I've never heard of this game. Do you put the rope on the ground and just jump over it? That doesn't sound like much fun.

@astutimeliana723 there are two types of playing rope I think. The one I used to playing is the rope is hang up as high as your Head and up

That's funny.

That's no need to Jump too high, because the rope is running.

We played jump rope when I was growing up, I doubt that children play it today. We also played London Bridge is falling down, and Drop the Handkerchief.
