I think she did that hop to make him think he really did sneak up on her and startle her.

Moms do that sort of thing to encourage their kids and give them confidence.

She firsts looks over the boulder in front of her. No way she doesn't see the little one sneaking up on her. Then she walks right out in front of the cub, that's when she leaps. I think she knew the cub was there and was just playing with him, But so cute!
