Yes, I do. I remember my mother signing up for Kindergarten in the school's cafeteria. We toured the school with Mrs. Mumford and saw the library. After the tour, woman came and asked us if I wanted to be in an A.M or P.M class. My mother said P.M while I said A.M. Nobody heard because of my small voice. I remember getting my left pinky stuck in a soap cap. I was sitting on the toilet when I saw a soap cap. I put my pinky through the little hole and the stupid cap wouldn't come off! I flushed the toilet and washed my hands and the cap still wouldn't budge. I ran to my room and went under my blankets. My grandmother came down and ask what me what I was doing. I told her about the cap and then she ripped it off. After that, she toke me to the park. I sit in the little tube on the playground and this annoying girl came. She kept pestering me so I ran off to the ropes. My grandmother started singing a song about going in and out the windows. I went on to the ground and started to kick at it. There, I found a nickel. I remember my first day of Kindergarten. My mother and I were waiting for class to open. Class opened and my teacher told us where our cubbies and desks were. We got our first assignment, a coloring page, and I didn't know how to write my name so I begged my mom to write it for me. The kid next to me, Antony, said that he could write his name. I looked behind me and saw a girl named Dana clinging to her mom and crying. I finished my assignment and went to the back of the of the room where the picture books where. I sat in the blue chair and started reading when I was interrupted by a a boy named Dallin. He said hello and I was shocked. I asked him, "You know my name?!" He nodded and we went back to reading. I developed my first crush, which I regret. I also remember a girl with a strange purple cheek bump. I hated her because I once brought my mom to class and she lied on her lap. That day, I vowed to get revenge. I remember my birthday. My sister bought some friends of hers and they ate a lot of my jack-o-lantern cake. I remember my sister telling her about one of her friends named Mathew. I thought of Draco Malfoy. I chased Mathew around calling "Malfoy". Then, Antony, the annoying boy who I sat next to, started chasing hi around. I went away and then he followed me with his back hunched and his hands to his chest. He wore a sly smile and said, "What should I do next, Master?". I ignored him for the rest of the year. A kid named DJ Grimes sat across from me. Whenever someone said his name, a cartoon version of his head in a deep fryer popped into my mind. I remember wearing a shirt with a Pikachu on it and some of the other girls were making fun of me because of this. A kid named Garret Guymon defended me by saying that some girls like Pokemon. I remember my mom buying me gummy hamburger candy and Antony stole them. I also remember that my Kindergarten teacher would eat chocolate when the students went to recess. Her daughter, who was a black black in karate, chopped wood with her hand.

yes I do and that, too. I can remember things back to actually being three years old. I remember hanging my doll's laundry on a clothes line. My mom even took a picture. Amazing and the strange fact I still enjoy doing it only with my actual clothes as an adult.

I definitely remember getting a bike for my 5th birthday!
I also remember a bit from Pre-K and kindergarten. I remember meeting my first best friend in Pre-K, and having my first sleepover with her at her house. We loved to play dress up, and we liked to get her pet rabbit out and play with it in the backyard. I remember how much i loved the swingset that she had in her backyard! I also remember when my whole Pre-K class went on a field trip to the zoo. At the end of the year, they had a goodbye party for me because I was moving that summer. I remember my friend's mom brought this giant cookie into the classroom and I got so excited. haha.
So that summer, when my family moved to another state, I remember stopping in Florida along the way to visit my grandparents. I remember going to the beach, and spending one day at the Magic Kingdom at Disney World. Then when we got to Virginia (where we were moving). Since my dad was in the military, we were friends with other military families, and this one family who had lived in the same place we did when I was a baby was now living in Virginia. So we got back together, and I met their daughter who was my age (technically we had met before but we had been babies the last time we saw each other so we didn't remember) and we became friends. That was nice, having a buddy for when I started kindergarten. It had been sad having to leave my friend from Pre-K and not be able to start kindergarten with her. I remember my first day of kindergarten pretty well. My new friend and I rode the bus together, and ended up being in the same class. I remember getting on the bus and the bus driver told me to turn around because my mom was taking a picture of me. haha.

I remember when i was in year 1 and we were going on a class trip somewhere, and before we left everyone had to go i to the bathroom first. Now,our bathrooms were actually in the classroom and there were only two cubicles: one for girls and one for boys. I remember the girls line being so long and they really took their time, so i risked stepping into the boys cubicle, which was empty. But before i stepped in, my teacher quickly pulled me out and said 'NEVER ENTER THE BOYS TOILET AGAIN, DO YOU UNDERSTAND?'
Obviously by then i was embarassed AND i still needed to pee, so instead of going all the way back to the long line of the girls, i resorted to wetting myself in front of everyone. So my teacher dragged me all the way to the headmistress' office, picked out some spare pants (idk where they got it from) and changed me right there with my bum on display in front of everyone (since the headmistress' door was open)
Most embarassing moment and i was ONLY 5. I have been scarred for life and never been the same since then..

Yes, somethings.
Like, the funniest is:
I was being taught to read. I read something wrong so the teacher said, "My eyes are so old yet I can read so well. Your's are so new, yet why do you read it wrong?"
To which I replied, "They are not new! They are full 5 years old."...lol
Others are, my favorite toy car (jeep actually) when I was 5, and some other toys like a dolphin which had a ball at its nose and used to dance on turning on and some others...
A xylophone kind of toy thing which my elder sister gifted me, and I hid behind a door to play it cause my mother asked me not to, as my little sister was sleeping. Though my mother couldn't see me directly, i didn't think that she'd hear me anyways. lol
Childhood is so funny.

My memories are pretty clear when I was 5 years old. I recall a lot about kindergarden. However before that memories are scant. My earliest thing I clearly recall is packing up and moving (that happened when I was three). I also remember my baby brother being born when I was four.
