La reina de los mares - Songs for jump rope





  Instruction

The trick in this game is that the child not only jumps the rope but also let a handkerchief fall down and picks it up again. Whenever they sing
tiro mi pañuelo al suelo => the child lets the handkerchief fall down
y lo vuelvo a recoger a recoger => the child picks it up again.
The child that gets caught in the rop has to leave the game. At one point only one is left and has won the game.
