Still can't remember exactly when mine was but i think it was when i was about 4 or 5 and playing Crazy Golf with my Mum on Holiday ( can't remember where ) and i remember little bits about Nursery like eating Apple and Raisins one time and using some fake phonebox thing they had there

Moving into this house I think. Can remember coming in for the first time and navigating my way up the carpetless stairs. Think I must have been about 3

Don't really have a specific one, just have some memories of when I was really little but not sure when exactly they're from, do have a vague memory of being in nursery though pretending I was some kind of chef or something

The earliest thing I remember is at Christmas time I think I must only have been about 3 and my 2 brothers got up really early before everyone else and ate a massive pile of selection boxes and chocolates between then, not just their own but everyone else's too and there is lots of us so they must have ate some amount, then they were ill and couldn't eat breakfast or dinner and my mum wasn't happy with them.

Can also vaguely remember sitting on a matt and having Milk & Cookies at nursery.

Niamhs earliest memory is probably taking shelter from this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cretaceous%E2%80%93Paleogene_extinction_event)


My earliest memory is nursery/pre nursery?
I can remember playing on the slide and going down it, banging my head EVERY time. I used to have a lot of headaches.

I remember thinking that I hated the slide but still went on it knowing the pain I would experience at the bottom.

I think it was being at Epcot in Disney World when I was 2 or 3. I remember my Dad carrying me past Spaceship Earth (the big Golfball shaped thing), which looks like this:

My earliest memory is being about 2 and my nan picking me up so I could wave to my mum through the window whilst she went out on a driving lesson....

Pushing a screen out a window on the second floor as my parents were wildly waving their arms at me down below on the front lawn of the duplex we lived in. They didn't know it, but I had no intention of going down. ;)

Edit: love reading about these from you all

I remember being on a swing, and singing/saying mummy bummy or something and my dad had a go at me because that was rude. I have no idea how old I was, but I must have been around 3 or 4 years old.

I remember being in my garden as well looking for frogs, must have been around the say age because I moved out of that house when I was 5ish :) nice thread.

Just before I was 3, I remember being at my oldest Brothers wedding, (up to that point I think I must have thought his wife to be was my Sister as she had been there since I was born).
I was with my Grandmother all that day and she was explaining to me all that was going on.

Falling off the arm of a chair when I was around 2 and breaking my arm. We moved when I was three, and I have many memories from the house we lived in up till that time.

I suppose avoiding being eaten by dinosaurs was a problem back then?

Mine is being in hospital with pneumonia when I was about 4. I was touch and go for a while. the hospital had a red train that my dad used to play with, with me, day and night.
