The Flip Flop Rope is an intangible heritage of Shaanxi Province.
Flip Rope is one of the intangible cultural heritages of Shaanxi Province, which not only combines Shaanxi's social fire, acrobatics and other forms of folk art expression, but also has a wide variety of patterns, and on the basis of twelve categories, more than sixty sets of rope paths, and more than 300 kinds of jumping, it innovates rope exercises, rope dances, rope skills, rope boxing, fun jumping rope and other categories.
The rope-flipping game is simple and easy to learn, but for beginners, especially for the fingers are not flexible enough, the hands are not enough to cooperate with the young children, there is indeed a certain degree of difficulty. When young children first learn to flip the rope, the line does not listen to the command of the finger, from time to time from the finger to fall off.
In the face of failure, such as other people's guidance and encouragement, peer-to-peer influence, and personal hard work, the flip out of the pattern finally have from easy to difficult, from simple to complex, from imitation to plan new changes. The children taught each other the experience of turning the rope and appreciated each other's "works", and the joy of success prompted the children to gain self-confidence.
The significance of flipping ropes
The activity of flipping ropes mainly relies on the operation of fingers. Each stylized pattern requires the fingers to complete some subtle movements such as propping, pressing, picking, turning, hooking, and releasing, which requires the right and left hands to cooperate in unison, and a skillful division of labor for each finger. In this process, the dexterity, precision and practical ability of the fingers, wrists and bilateral limbs are developed to different degrees.
Many scientists have also confirmed that there is an inextricable link between the hand and the brain, and that the more complex, delicate and skillful the movements of the fingers, the more they promote the development of the brain's nerves.
So it can be said that strengthening the hand activity is to develop the potential function of the brain, cultivate the important link of creativity, training fingers is training the brain. The game requires eyes to observe and distinguish the crisscrossing lines, and requires the brain to memorize the order and method of operation, so the game has the role of hand, brain, and enlightenment.
