Default What Is Your Earliest Memory?

I don't exactly know how old I was, but I remember protesting with a friend against the game where everybody turns into zombies, because we thought it was rude to imitate "the real zombies"

What is yours?

Hmmm...
I think my earliest one is when i was probably about 3, almost 4, and i remember i was racing my big sister up the stairs in our townhouse and she won because she pushed me, (I don't know why i remember that 0.o) And i remember our neighbours in the townhouse (we moved out when i turned 4) And there was a blonde girl my age named Bailey that i used to play with...

Let's my earliest memory is off....When I was 2 and I was sitting on my great grandmother's lap on a rocking chair, while she was was sewing and giving me bologna! ^.^ I'm happy that I have that one memory of her because she died one year later and none of my other siblings got to see what a wonderful person she was

It was sometime before I was three because we moved to the house my parents live in now when I was three. I remember our former house which was across the street from the drive-in movie theater. I remember climbing up on the couch and looking out the window at the movie screen and wishing I could hear the voices.

I remember one Christmas, I got a small plastic track to ride a little cart down. It was little more than a slide, and it was only about four feet long, but I remember thinking it was huge. I was somewhere around 2-4 years old.

i honestly dont know. im a little miffed people seem to remember lol. i cant.

i have lots of memories, and sometimes i'll hear a song or see something or smell something that takes me back to when i was young, but i dont know how far back i can remember. i remember big events, like i remember when i was 6 and my dad came into mine and my sisters room, and told us he was leaving home etc, but i cant clearly pin-point anything like an earliest memory.

I remember driving to what would become my elementary school to pick up my older brother, who was getting out of school in the 1st or 2nd grade. So I had to have been about 3 or 4.... I remember because we were driving the old Cadillac we had which didn't have the seatbelts in the back seat

I remember, when I was really young, that I climbed into my cousin's crib just to play with his pots and pans. XD Funny days.

my earliest memory was when i was 2. i had a severe blood condition where my platelet level was really low, which made me bruise easily. Well, I had to be hospitalized. I remember laying in my stainless steel hospital crib with my dad sitting right next to me. I also remember using the rolling IV machine as a little scooter and riding it down the hall to the game room where I would play with a toy WWII bomber plane.

I don't know how I remember such a detailed experience, but I do.

Hm, I don't remember many details, but I think I was 4 or 5, and someone had taught me some bad words, and I decided to say them to my uncle. I think it went along the lines of "(Uncle's girlfriend's name) is a mr." What I remember the most was actually running away to hide from him. Good times...

I was 2, in a church creche in England. I had a red rubber ball. Someone came up to me and asked if they could play with it. I looked down at the ball, thought about it for a moment, and figured, "sure, why not?" So I gave it to him. He ran off with it, then the thought occurred to me. "Now, I no longer have the ball." I questioned my decision, then I think I got distracted by something else. It's the earliest memory I have, and the clearest memory by far, in comparison to other, similarly old memories.

I couldn't have been any older than two, because we were living in Geelong at the time, and we moved away from there not long before I turned three. I was with a small group of other kids (all older than I am, my sister's age, I think) who were over at my place (we lived on a really big block of land, I got lost in the backyard once or twice), and we were at the back fence, talking to the pony in the property behind us. Everyone was feeding it grass, and I offered it dirt. I have no idea why.
