Abstract
A jump rope, capable of being connected to a source of water, consists of a hollow tube connected from the source of water to a jump rope handle. The outlet of the jump rope handle is connected to a hollow tube that has a series of small holes. The other end of the hollow tubing have the holes is connected to a second jump rope handle. The handles freely rotate about the hollow tubes. Children using the jump rope become wet from water spraying from the holes in the jump rope as it is being used.
