One child has a valentine in their hand and goes around the circle deciding who's back they're going to drop it behind. As the song says, by the last line the child drops it and the child who has the valentine chases the other before they can then sit in the open spot.

Won't my mamma give my bug a hug. I'm bringing home a baby lovey bug. Oops.... he(she) kissed me! I make a craft project with the kids too to incorporate with the song. You make 2 small hearts of the same color and size. One white circle. You will be putting the hearts together to form wings and connect them together with the circle. Put the pointed tips of the hearts together. glue the circle on top of the tips. Have children draw eyes, smile etc on circle. I also talk about X's and O's for hugs and Kisses and encourage the kids to write some on the wings. When done I attach to a craft stick like a stick puppet. When we sing Oops it kissed me I make the smack sound like a kiss and have my lovey bug "kiss" one of the children. They Love this and I have also done this as a take home parent/child project.

Pass them out at random and have the children walk around singing the following song. When the song is done, they should try to find a friend holding the same color and then sit down together,quickly. The children love to do this over and over and trade colors each time a new round begins.(Make certain to have enough "odd" or "even" numbers so that everyone has a match.
