Fun home workout with your child – jump rope brings the joy of movement!

Family workouts don't require expensive gym memberships, strict schedules or complicated equipment. If you have a jump rope at home and just a few minutes of time, you're ready to move – together.

This 5-minute jump rope workout is designed especially for families with children. It brings smiles, develops motor skills and strengthens parent-child interaction through movement.

Why is the jump rope the perfect tool for family workouts?

✔️ Suitable for all ages – jumping is a natural movement that works even for 1–2-year-olds with a rope of the right length
✔️ Fun and developmental – jumps improve balance, coordination, rhythm, and body control
✔️ Takes up little space – easy to carry and can be used indoors or outside
✔️ Doing it together is motivating – children are inspired by their parents and want to join in

5-minute workout with your child

Do each movement for 30–45 seconds – moving at your own pace and having fun is what matters most!

Alternating jumps together
Adult and child jump in turns. Compete to see who gets more jumps!

Star jump + rope hop
Do a star jump and then a small hop over the rope. The child can hop – or run over it!

One-leg balance hops
Try jumping on one leg – who can stay up the longest?

Sit down – stand up – jump!
Sit down, get up, and jump – even hand in hand if you like.

Freestyle fun
End with 30 seconds of totally free jumps! Let the child choose the style – joy is the goal.

Small ropes for small feet

Ropee offers colorful, top-quality beaded jump ropes for kids – also in special lengths:

🟣 Ropee Princess, 💛 Candy and 🌈 Rainbow now available in:

3XS (168 cm) for 3–4-year-olds
plus 8 longer sizes
and a 4.6 m group rope version

These models are durable, easy to control, and visually attractive – kids naturally want to grab them.

Tip: combine movement and play

Try a playful "Speed Sprint" challenge or invent your own rope games. A jump rope can also be used for tag, obstacle courses, or racing. Kids often start galloping with the rope – and that's the best part!

Moving together creates lasting memories. A jump rope makes them even more fun.
