Little kittens like to play that way...but it can be a problem. The best way to handle this is to take your index finger and thumb and hold the kitty's mouth closed for a moment and say "NO". Because kitties can't really understand words, it is important that you use a forceful and low voice. If you say no in a similar manner to how you say, "Aren't you a cute kitty?" she won't understand. It will not work if you only do this once...it will take a few tries. Also be consistent...don't let kitty bite you sometimes, and then scold her other times.
