I personally don't think it's that big of a deal when they are that young, unless it's something major like you said-hitting or throwing a rock.

Unless maybe another kid has already gotten in trouble for kissing and the class was already addressed. Either way he now knows the rules and hopefully he can keep his kisses for his mamma!

I agree, it needs to be addressed but I wouldn't punish in anyway, especially since it's obviously the first time - they just needed to set him aside and explain that we don't do that at school and let you know.
