Double Dutch Jump Rope


Double Dutch Jump Rope is one of the great agility games for kids. It takes good coordination for jumping rope with two ropes!



3 or more players
Ages 6 and up
Need: 2 jump ropes

This is more tricky than using just one rope! Both the jumper and the rope turners need good hand - eye coordination. It may seem hard at first, but once everyone gets used to it, it's a lot of fun!

Two players take each end of two ropes and hold them in different hands. (Each player who is turning the rope will have a rope in both of his hands.)

They begin by swinging the rope in their left hands clockwise. They then begin swinging the rope in their right hands counter clockwise. This way, both ropes lightly touch the ground at different times.

The jumper jumps in and tries not to miss a hop. You'll need to hop from one foot to the other to continue jumping. Jumpers can try one foot hopping as well.
