Please Tell Me That 2.5 Year Olds Don't Remember Stuff?

[bednobs]

Please please please .....

[tonyav]

Depends on what it is I suppose, bednobs.

[Tilly2]

I depends what it is......

[Tilly2]

Snap, Yont!

[melv16]

Got caught having an afternoon liaison? ;)

[boxtops]

Well - I do, bednobs. I can certainly remember loads from that age and before. I clearly remember my Dad's 40th birthday, I would have been just under 2 at the time.

[Tilly2]

bednobs........?

[Mamyalynne]

oh oh.

[murraymints]

hmmmmmm..........

[jno]

not much. It's possible, but mostly early memories get crowded out by later ones, especially ones they understand better. So the memory of you gunning down Mr B will probably fade quickly.

[grasscarp]

I find they invariably remember everything. Granny do you remember when you ...... and all the things I wish I had never done come out again.

[Tilly2]

I remember, I remember,
The house where I was born,
The little window where the sun
Came peeping in at morn;
He never came a wink too soon,
Nor brought too long a day,
But now, I often wish the night
Had borne my breath away!

Well I can remember things that happened.
a few years ago I returned to a holiday location that I had not visited in over
60 years and was able to walk directly to where I had paddled as a 2 year old
and to the guest house that we had stopped in at the time.

I love that little verse Tilly2

[China Doll]

They can do... it really does depend on what it is.

You alright?

[Retrochic]

oh for goodness sake.....

[sherrardk]

I expect if it was an event that was referred to at other times (a big party or trip, looking at photographs of the event, etc) then it might be remembered but the things can't remember going to Eurodisney and they must have been about 2 1/2.

[Old_Geezer]

For five minutes, or a lifetime ?

[Dizmo]

Murder or sexual indecency?

[Retrochic]

Doubt its anything like that Dizmo - probably mums bought ...wait for it.... eggs that aren't free range!!! Like the famous Catherine Tate comedy sketch lol! (someone please put a clip up its beyond me and really funny )
