Two girls are required to twist the rope, one at each end and also two other girls to jump into the rope and she must let the rope over her head, then she must jump again so as to let it under her lags. If any girl stands on the rope she must stop skipping and then it is her turn to twist the rope so as to give the other girl a chance to have a skip.
