I'm disappointed. When I saw jumping jacks as the thread title I thought of the fireworks of that name. Go back to sleep and dream of the days before the nanny state. mumble mumble Clive

Yes I remember Jumping Jacks and can remember wearing a lovely white leather pair, and I used to wear them with 'poodle' socks. Does anyone remember those socks? Jayne

I can remember doing jumping jacks when I was at school and we had our exercises. Jump up and land with feet apart and arms above our head, then jump up and land with feet together and arms by sides. Never heard of any other sort of jumping jacks.

Jumping Jack baby shoes… Just reading Lyndas thread took me back…I still have a little pair of burgundy patient Jumping Jack shoes, remember the sole of the shoe formed the heal…..I think they have stopped making them now, but I still get them out and look at them sometimes……..
