Playful hand biting

Don’t use your hand. You will end up with a “hand attacking cat”. My husband made that mistake many a time with our cats and when we took in the last litter he had to keep reminding himself “No Hands” and “no feetsies” in bed. It’s cute when they are kittens but not when they grow up. It HURTS when they grow up.

Use something else to play with your kitty such as a toy mouse held by the tail or a string (put the string away when you are not holding the other end).

I can’t top Kat’s answer, so I’m just going to agree with everything she said! But I wanted to add that I swore I would train my new kitties right, and I did. I never used my hands or feet as toys with them, and neither of them are biters. They’re very mannerly. The only time they will bite is if they are telling us to stop something, and then it’s very very light.
