Down in the Valley (Rope Skipping Rhyme)

Down in the valley whwere the green grass groes

There sat Sally as sweet as a rose.

She sang, she sang, she sang so sweet

Along cam Jack and kissed her on the cheek.

How many kisses did he give her?

One,two, three, etc. and so on until the jumper misses.
