The invention discloses an electric jumping rod for a child to sit. The electric jumping rod comprises a main rod and a protective sleeve, a foot pad is arranged at the lower end of the main rod, the main rod extends into the protective sleeve, a pedal is fixedly connected to the lower end of the protective sleeve, the main rod penetrates through the pedal and is connected with the pedal in a sliding mode, and a grip is fixedly connected to the upper end of the protective sleeve. A mounting groove is formed in the bottom of the grip, a plurality of electromagnet structures are arranged in the mounting groove, a battery pack is arranged in the grip, the battery pack is electrically connected with the plurality of electromagnet structures, a storage groove is formed in the upper end of the grip, a pressing spring switch is arranged in the storage groove, and the pressing spring switch is electrically connected with the battery pack. Under the action of the rebounding force of magnetic force, the jumping height and distance of the jumping rod can be further increased, people do not need to waste physical strength, a good buffering effect can be achieved, the safety of people is protected, a lamp body can emit light, the lighting effect on the surroundings is achieved, extra electric energy cannot be wasted, and energy conservation and environmental protection are achieved.
