Being around my great-aunt's house looking at all the tadpoles in her garden pond when my sister tried to push my face in the water. I must have been about four at the time.

My early memories kind of suck, I have trouble remembering much from before I was about eight.

I believe I was about 1 because this was in the first house my parents stayed in before they moved when I was 1 and a half.
There was construction going on outside through the window and there were a bunch of steam shovels and such.
In my little under-developed mind, I thought they were dinosaurs

I only recently remembered, I think I was 7 at the time.
It was Judo at the local leisure centre, and I turned and looked at the face of the person who,to this day, I have a crush on.
D: memories why can't you be unrelated?

Half your sister stole your blanket?

That must have been one scary-ass memory.

OT: Well, when I was a little kid there was only really one other kid my age I interacted with. Beyond that, I basically grew up with a pack of gun dogs, so my earliest memory is being put in the back of a landrover with them after a day on the moor with my dad.

I love dogs. They always make me feel happy and energetic.

Edit: I must have been around 3 or 4?

No idea what age I was, but I remember listening to disney christmas carols and driving around town looking at christmas lights.

It's a tradition in our family, so my age could vary, but they're still moments I'll never forget.

A few indistinct memories of crawling, my mother reading children's books, etc.

First clear memory that I can distinctly place is holding my sister the day she was born, was almost six at that point.

I think I was around 4 where my bigger brother and I played war with plastic guns or guns we built with lego's or something. We used to live in an old huge house with a huge garden and everything was snowy. We had a complicated system and set of rules for our age to determine who won :p

The earliest thing i remember clearly was meeting my best friend in kindergarten. I do have a vague memory of lying in a crib with my parents looking down at me, but i can't tell if thats a memory, a dream, my imagination or some combination.

The earliest one i can full recall is when my dad got a new edger and started it up in the house and smacked our kitchen tile.

I can remember a few things before that but no full events.

Uh, I said when I was 3 and a half years old, my sister did not split like some silent hill game. There was a point to me writing "and a"

You forgot the comma.

My earliest memory is me taking a shit on our yard at age 2-3.
No, really.

I can actually remember being changed on a bedside-table. It's surprisingly vivid.

At the time, the table seemed like a skyscraper, and my mother a giant.

After that, however, there's a multiple year blank with my next earliest memory being a bad dream I had at age 3 or 4, where my house turned into the boo mansion from Mario 64.

I have a really bad memory. I can't remember before high school or even the early years of high school (I'm 18).
I do have the vaugest memory of being in the car. I have a feeling I was going home after nursery. I don't know why I remember it but I do. I also kind of remember being in a car accident when I was maybe 5. I remember my head hurting and being in an ambulance thats about it. My memory sucks :(

I recognized the church where my uncle got married when I was a little older than two. My brother and I were the ring bearers. I don't remember the event in any specifics, I just recognized the building and asked my mom why I remembered it.

My first vivid memory was my grandfather threatening to pull my teeth out with pliers for biting my brother (again) when I was three. I hid the pliers behind the TV, nobody found them until a few years later when we moved the TV.

Back in preschool, so maybe I was 4 or 5, I was riding my bike to school. On the way, my teacher saw me and took me home to my worried mom, who wouldn't let me to go to school that day when the bus finally came around.

When I was 3 my house was raided by dea (like over 20 of them) because my dad had a meth lab in it. It was the first time I saw a lot of things and I still get nervous and sometimes shaky around law enforcement.
Plus this was when I still loved my dad so it really hit hard to have him taken away.

I can actually remember my brother changing me on my mother's bed. The rest blanks to a time I peed myself when I was 3 or 4 at the circus.
