skipped
Hopped along lightly
Skipped is the past tense of skip—to move with light, bouncing steps, or to pass over something: She skipped down the sidewalk, I skipped the boring parts.
Skipped suggests omission or absence: He skipped class, My heart skipped a beat.
A stone skipped across water bounces before sinking.
