Gameplay

The participants divide into two groups – typically a girls' group and a boys' group. Group A stays in place, while group B goes into another room designated the "post office". Each member of group A individually visits the "post office", where they receive a kiss from each member of group B, after which they return. Once everyone in group A has taken a turn, group A's room becomes the new "post office" to which group B begins sending members, where they receive a kiss from each member of group A.
