I can descibe an early childhood class I had when I was 3 in full vivid detail. I'm not sure about other old memories because I have no other way of measuring the date. Most people can't remember nearly as far back.

I remember a house i lived in for 18 months or less (birth until I was 18 months or less). I remember in detail the next house we lived in (until i was 6). I can still draw a map of the house. My memories of these things are much like a video with full color and sounds, and sometimes smells too.

I have some memories from around 3yo, while we were still in Ohio. So 3's the earliest.

I remember a few things that happened in the house we lived in until I was three.

I also remember a few memories that feel even older than that, but my parents don't know when they happened, so I can't put an exact date on them...running around a house I can't recall, a grandmother handing me one of those big plastic candy canes with candy inside, and then climbing up onto the organ bench and pounding the ivories a bit (literally) Wink I remember this button I pressed that made it play the most interesting music I had heard up to that point...when I was older, I tried finding that button again, but it didn't exist...it was probably just one of the rhythms.

I remember when my mum went into hospital to have my little sister - I remember gathering up my Mickey Mouse pens to take with me to my grandma's house. I was 3 then. I think I might have earlier memories, but I can't really place the time/age on those so *shrug*.

1-2 years or so.

I was living in a different house, in a different area until I was about 2 years old and I remember the house and area completely.

The earliest I can remember is from when I was 2 years old.

I can still recall things from around the age of one, and perhaps before that.

3. I remember saying I was 3 years old, or waking up and walking through the house and stuff like that.

Interesting, many others said 3. cool
