At this ThinkQuest award-winning website for kids by kids, find all the basics on the old-fashioned, but still oh-so-cool sport of jumping rope. Jump Into A Healthy Life will teach everything you need to know from basic such as the basic double bounce and side straddle to advanced skills including the behind the knee cross. While you are here, learn the health benefits of jumping rope and other exercise and information about the heart and the circulatory system.
Try your hand at the heart quiz or the jump quiz and find the "lost skills" in the word find.
