Do your oldest memories have other people in them?

Just reading this thread brings back more memories. Actually with people. Maybe I'm not at weird

Remember playing in the farm pool with my cousins. And an old friend building a den around some of the trees in the scrub in the garden. Climbing the grain pile (super dangerous lol).
Oh and really dangerous, holding onto a pallet with my cousin tied to the back of a pick up truck driving with my uncle driving in big circles until we flew off!

Actually thinking about my upbringing it's crazy how it's shaped me.

I like nature because I grew up on a farm seeing all birds and playing outside building dams, dens and rubble houses.

I love the water because I spent so much time in the farm pool. I can't remember learning how to swim. So I can't remember not being able to swim.


Edit.. I remember my mum telling me to burn the old caravan when I was young. Good Times! How could I forget that!
 
I've been thinking about this since yesterday when I first saw the thread.

Very early memories are extremely patchy but I remember the mobile (a hanging decoration/stimulus thing, not a phone :)) that used to hang over my cot/tiny bed when I was very little. It had aeroplanes hanging down from it. I'm sure it's a real memory because I can see it from underneath and also because I don't have any photos of it as far as I know.

I also have a few memories of crawling around in grass in the garden of a house we lived in until I was about two and a half, I distinctly remember the chainlink boundary fence (I think I was constantly trying to escape - some strangers apparently found me a few hundred yards away once, across the road).

I have many memories after the age of three. I remember trampolining on my parents bed on my third Birthday shouting, "I'm three!" over & over. :)
 
Only early memory I can put a definite date on is first day of school and not liking the mince that was served
Remember nursery too but was prob there for a couple of years so not 100% on age
Grew up living on a farm with no siblings so lots of old memories that don’t involve other people tho
 
I have lots of very early memories which include family members. Its pretty funny recounting them to my folks (I'm 47) as they had forgotten many of them until I start talking about them and several of them are from around the age of 18 months to 2 years old (I can recall being in nappies and being changed before bed, laid on a blue bed sheet in the back bedroom of our house).
I have a few strange memories as well which people have said are "screen memories" but they aren't they are just memories of the over active mind of a kid.
