What is your earliest memory and how old do you think you were when you had it?

Question

Mine is falling off the monkey bars when i was 3 years old and breaking my arm.

Im 21 years old now

Answer 1

Mine is similar to yours...but in my case I was leaning real far back on a chair in the dinning room and fell straight back...I remember crying and then laughing for awhile before crying some more....lol....I was 3 yrs old too.

Answer 2

Mine is being on the swing in the back garden, sitting on my Uncle Graham's knee. It is summer, good weather. There are several people there, we are waiting. After a while, my gran holds a baby up at the window, and shouts 'it's a boy', and I see my baby brother for the first time. I am 1 year old.

Answer 3

I can remember when I was 3. Ironically, I fell off the monkey bars when I was 4 (I'm 52 now) and split open my forehead. I still have the scar.

Answer 4

I remember being on a small bridge in Japan with a brother. Recently, my father visited Japan for the cherry blossom festivals and sent a bunch of snapshots from our old village. That bridge was in one of the photos. When I recognized it and told my father, he said I was only about 18 months old when I was on that bridge with my brother, the day my father's unit of U.S. Army engineers finished building it! That was so cool to see that photo and put the whole memory together as real.

Answer 5

I remeber getting my professional portraits taken when I had the chicken pox and i was 16 months old then. I remeber walking down the street to get to the photo place and I remeber the lady looking at my booboo's and I remeber how itchy i was and I wanted to scratch but the photographer yelled at me when I moved a hair!

Hope this is encouraging for you if you like to know you'll keep your memories:

I remember a few bits of things from when I was two years old; and I have grown kids. Not bad, eh?
