Earliest memories as a child

What was your earliest memory from your childhood?
 
Mine was playing a video game called Dr. Goo on my Dad’s old Windows 98 computer.

i was practicing playing d A n ^K _m E m ^{e S}

I like to think I have a lot of memories from back when, but placing them into order is tough.
 
I remember back in the day my dad used to work at a place called Bassett Furniture and he would bring me home things after work sometimes, but every day I would ask if he brought me something back regardless of whether he did or not. I would try to be subtle, I guess - the only thing I really remember asking was if he had something in his shirt pocket.
 
I also used to like the Hamster Dance song when I was little but then I got scared my dad wouldn’t love me anymore for liking that song ._.
 
Then I remember my Pre-K teacher was very fat and there was a kid named Jose in my Pre-K class who would always build cool things with the blocks
 
that’s about as far back as I can reach

I remember my Dad shreiking at me because I couldn’t tie my shoes up after a few times. I absolutely remember never learning how to ride a bike because bikes are shit.
 
Besides that though I think what I remember most is probably probably my elementary school and how we couldn’t do any fun activities at all and how it somewhat haunted me throughout Kindergartners through 6th grade because I always got the shittest classes. Ughhhh I never really liked anyone IN those classes. It was hard as hell faking niceness around people that disguisted me which wasalmost everybody.

Looking at a card I got for my fourth birthday.

Hah, nobody has toddler or baby memories? That’s kind of surprising. I vaguely remember lying against my Dad’s side as a baby - I was freakishly hot, and his pager or cell phone or something was a huge uncomfortable lump a good deal bigger than my hand. It’s super vague, though.
 
But I also remember the family lining up for a picture as we boarded “The Big Red Boat” - I presume. At the time, all I was aware of is everyone was just standing in this line, and there was this pile of boxes, and I decided to try climbing them, but for some reason my mom kept stopping me and turning me to face some lady in the distance with some thing in her hands XP
 
It must’ve been for my older brothers and parents, ‘cause I was too young to get what was going on, heh.
 
Yeah, memories from before I knew how to talk, that’s interesting. Kind of fascinating. I’ve got a few more from toddler-hood, too. Looking at a drawer full of baby toys, and being all, “No way, I’m way too old for that, I’m 3!” I wanted to be grown up but also felt kind of sad at leaving that stuff behind XD
 
Heh, I think at around the same age of 3, I once declared that I knew everything there was to know - because I couldn’t think of anything I didn’t know! Impeccable logic.
 
Then there was my thoughts that because I was in pull-ups, not “diapers”, I was officially no longer a “baby,” but was a respectable and mature “kid” XD
 
Catching insects… One day it was foggy, and we live on a big hill (southerners call it a mountain, hah - foothill of the Appalachians), and I somehow overheard that it was a “cloud.” Super excited, I ran out and got “a jar of cloud,” because it was so awesome - those big white puffy things in the sky - I had a piece of one, now!
 
And one of my favorite toys of all time was this board that had the solar system and you could click different buttons to learn about the planets… Aw man.

I remember being at a beach as a babby. The adults dug a huge hole in the sand and threw me in it. First it was fun, but when I wanted to get out but couldn’t, it was super horrifying and I started crying hysterically

I remember saying “I’m taller”

Watching Totoro on VHS?

I can’t remember which one but it was either  
A. My parents buying a Nintendo 64/ playing pokemon blue on a game boy color  
B. Watching the iron giant in a hotel room  
C. Hugging goofy at Disneyland  
I don’t know which one was the first. all I know is that I was 3 when most of that stuff happened

I’ve been trying to think, and I remember something before anything I posted earlier.
 
When I was little, we had a pile of sand in the backyard and my dad had bought all these little superhero figurines from the dollar store. I had them fight and then the losers got buried in the sandpit. I lost all of those figures that I buried and I got frustrated ._.

When i was babysat by an old lady.I think i remember this because this woman worked at her home so it was probably one of the first time when i wasnt at home with my parents

I remember my playpen and playing with my Ninja Turtles specifically I remember the motorcycle with the trash can sidecar.
 
Must have been four or five.

Earliest I remember was going kindergarten and snacking on those vanilla biscuits and milk. That was so good.
