I have only two clear memories from when I was around 2.5 years old. I think they stuck because of an unusual connection. There was a guy who used to come to our door and sell eggs, in huge 24-egg cartons (I didn't count them, I just remember the big square size). And then one day we took a long drive in my father's old car, along wet dirt roads, and ended up at a country house where my mother bought a sewing machine. And it was the same guy selling that one. So he was clearly some kind of peddler of various diverse items (and his farm house explained where he got the eggs from, but that's my much later reasoning).
(the sewing machine is still around, btw, a lifetime later).
For other memories I don't have any clear ones until I'm a bit more than three years old. But I have lots of them.
Edit: Oh, and of course the memory from when I was exactly three.. I fell on my head from quite high, landed on ice.. I probably fainted, but I remember a guy came and carried me home. I got a concussion from that.
