    She skipped off, singing.

    Explanation:

    The second option shows rather than tells, because it has more emotive words and it also creates a sensorial experience with the use of the word "singing" it makes the reader imagine the person repeating a tune, and this also makes the mood merrier, then the action of skipping off instead of walking also evokes the figure of a happy child.

    I would say the second option - "She skipped off, singing"

    It gives a visual of her being very happy, instead of just saying she was happy.
