Alternatively, you can even provide Hershey’s Kisses for markers. The caller will then begin the game by picking a card from the container and announcing what’s written on it. The players who have the same item will mark it off or will place the Kiss in it. The game must be continued until any player covers five squares in a row either up, down, diagonally or sideways.
