Making Jump Ropes

In my spare time (ha, ha, ha), I've started making jump ropes for Carrie and Denver to take to Africa.  This will be Carrie's 7th trip to Africa to be with the children which she has gotten to know quite well.  Denver has been there several times also, and they will both be leaving in August.  This year they will be helping to teach planting a garden and caring for it.  The children didn't know what a jump rope was until Carrie took some one year and taught them to jump rope.  These I am making from plastic bags, cut into strips and braided together.  WHAT FUN...
Looks like a snake, but only a 6 foot plastic jump rope...
Actually it goes pretty fast.  Have three done and only worked about an hour.  Gotta keep braiding...
ANYONE WANT TO MAKE SOME???
2014 Carrie introduced the jump rope...
