LOL!! Teach them some of the songs to get the rhythm down. I remember a line of us at recess waiting to "run in". I never see kids jumping rope anymore. So sad :( Oh, and you'll be fine, and it just might become a daily activity that you drag your kids out to play with you! Life is good... Come to think of it, I should get off this computer and get my little munchkin out and teach him to jump rope.
