by Sammy and Baba to pass time while Mommy is taking a shower. There, as of September 2011, are five kinds of jumps.
Gameplay[]
In Jumpies, Baba climbs to the top of the bathtub and Sammy the bottom and they jump off. Sammy often says "123 go", but Baba does not listen while doing the Villdizs kind. The original kind is described here.
Villdizs Kind[]
The Villdizs kind, also called Vindaharz Jumps, is similar to the original. In the Villdizs kind, Baba and Sammy climb up the bathtub, lean against the wall, and then roar and jump with claw-like hands. It is Baba's favorite kind.
Sophia Kind[]
The Sophia kind, also called Blue Spike Jumps, is Sammy's favorite kind. It is exactly like original jumps but jumpers hold blue "Sophias" and throw them when jumping. It is Baba's least favorite kind, as the Sophias have injured his arm before.
Mr. Michael Kind[]
The Mr. Michael, also called Reading Jumps, kind was only introduced a couple days ago at the time of this article being created and it already has three variations. The original Mr. Michael kind involves sticking a green B around your fingers and jumping with the B. Another variation involves holding books, the third being throwing the books.
Dreidel Kind[]
The Dreidel Kind is a very popular kind. It involves picking up a dreidel and throwing it while making explosion noises. It is a less dangerous version of the Sophia Kind.
Sunglasses Kind[]
The Sunglasses Kind is a kind of Jump. It is the same as the original jumpie but jumpers are wearing sunglasses.
Drum Kind[]
In the Drum kind, also called Beater Jumps, jumpers start out beating the bath with a drumstick, then jump holding the same drumstick. Then, jumpers beat the ground with yet the same drumstick.
Criticism[]
There is a decent amount of Jumpies criticism. Most players, like Daddy, believe it will damage the house. However, some players see how it could injure players. The jumps themselves could hurt players' legs, and the Sophia Kind could injure players badly because of the throwing. The "Unique games" forum on Sammygames.com has a lot of threads on Jumpies criticism.
Fun Facts[]
