Playing area with space for players to spread out.
1 skipping rope per player.
Make sure players are a safe distance apart (allow 3 metres minimum).

On your signal, players skip for 1 minute, doing a single two-footed jump.
Each time players jump, they should call out the months of the year in order.
Partner up – have participants pair up, with 1 player turning the rope while they both jump it.
Play in large group with long rope. Call out months together.
