--How to play 

--- Assign the girls letters and the guys #s. Make sure you have a list for both. If you have more than 26 girls assign shapes or colors but make sure you write them on your list. 

--- A person sits in the middle on a chair 

--- Then a # and letter or color/shape is called 

--If a girl is in the chair the guy running has to kiss the girl in the chair before the girl running kisses him. 

--If a guy is in the chair the girl running has to kiss him before the guy running kisses her. 

--What ever gender is kissed has to go in the middle and the other gender gets a point. 

-- So if a girl kisses the guy then the girls get the point. And the guy is now in the middle. 

--If a guy kisses the girl then the guys get the point, and the girl has to now be in the middle.

--Watching the YouTube video will help you understand.
