How the jump rope appeared
The rope appeared before the 19th century. It was originally intended as a trainer for boys. Later girls mastered it. According to the English version of the origin — people jumped over a leather cord during Easter games. According to the Chinese version, the jump rope originated from ordinary cords and ropes that were used in the work. Children saw adults jumping over cords that got in their way. Later they began to do it themselves, turning it into a game.
