Skipping Race is an enjoyable and energetic activity that enhances coordination and balance as participants race while skipping.

### Detailed Summary
To conduct a Skipping Race, mark a starting and end line with a distance between them of 20 to 40 metres. Divide the students into teams. The first student in each lane begins the race by skipping the entire distance, alternating feet while hopping. After reaching the end line, they return to the starting point and pass the skipping rope to the next teammate. The sequence continues until the last teammate has their turn. The team that finishes first wins the game. This activity helps develop coordination and balance among participants.
