My earliest memory is age 2, which was a traumatic one. Being wheeled through the double doors into the surgery areas, while my mom had to wait outside and was assuring me we would get Taco Bell after. Age 3. My father assembling a solid plastic child riding horse with springs. Age 4. A residential home converted to child day care, where I first encountered Cosmic Encounter on a table (probably left out from the night before). I had no idea what that was until my teens. Age 4-6, a rather large number of memories like beginning to formally write with my left hand, almost choking on a sea shell I had been sucking on, Jimmy Carter was president, my first memorable Halloween, etc. All at a Kindercare facility, which is a national pre-school chain.
