That's just how cats and kittens play. Their fur protects them from the teeth and claws of their playmates, but to our skin biting and scratching can be very painful. Kittens (and cats) play which is practice for when they are older and need to hunt - this "play" hones their balancing, stalking, co-ordination and pouncing skills. Also, it helps sort out social interactions (what is right and what is not) and hierarchy. Cats, unlike dogs, do not have a strict hierarchy but there will always be a "top cat" and a meeker, milder cat, and all sorts of variations in between.
Cats also do this with humans, and if taught correctly they learn not to be so rough with their human carers and grow up to be well behaved cats.

Can you stroke your cat?
Cats enjoy being petted. They like having their ears and neck scratched. Petting or stroking should be done from front to back, or head toward tail, and gently. Cats do NOT like rough play. In fact, if you train your cat to tolerate rough play, eventually they will use their claws and teeth to fight back. DO NOT TRAIN KITTENS TO EXPECT ROUGH TOUCHING OR JOSTLING!
