A jumper may incorporate fancy foot movements or perform tricks that involve gymnastics or breakdance. Normally the jumping is coordinated with a nonsensical skipping-rope rhyme, perhaps based on a spelling or counting pattern, which is sometimes a commentary on current events. It originated among Dutch immigrants in New York City but became a popular street activity, especially among African American girls.
