A Jump Rope Rime
DOWN IN THE VALLEY WHERE THE GREEN GRASS GROWS, THERE SAT KATHY PRETTY AS A ROSE
ALONG CAME JIM AND KISSED HER ON THE CHEEK,
HOW MANY KISSES DID SHE RECEIVE?
ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE . . . .
(THE JUMPER CONTINUES TO COUNT UNTIL HE OR SHE MISSES THE JUMP. IT MAY ALSO BE NOTED THAT THERE CAN BE A SUBSTITUTION OF THE BOY AND GIRL NAMES IN THE RIME. USUALLY THE JUMPER PUTS HIS OR HER OWN NAME IN AND THEN THAT OF ANOTHER PERSON.)
