Hey Pandas, What Are Your Most Memorable Childhood Stories? (Closed)

When my Mom came home with a hamster for me and my sister! (I was 4.) When my Mom showed me the hamster, I was like, "That dog looks like a hamster!"

I was a safety patrol and as a patrol we're supposed to go in a line and high-five the incoming parents. I stood next to my friend and some lady skipped us, "Because we were "Japs."" Neither of us are Japanese. She's Korean and I'm Chinese. Just goes to show how racist people can be.

Feeding a family of hedgehogs after I took one of them out of the metal fence where the hedgehog was stuck and couldn't get out, he came back shortly with 2 other hedgehogs, and my family and I fed them for like a week.

Going to the dogs home to get my very first pet (REX). I went up to the cage and put my fingers in and my mum started to panic until Rex started licking my fingers then my mum said that he was the one. He was a collie and we were best friends. Where ever i went he was with me. I missed that dog! I have had other pets since but nothing as close to him.

Here's a fun one-
On Halloween, I was (then 11) trick-or-treating with my crush at the time. While we were between houses, he gave me a candy bracelet!
"Yum, Candy!" I said and promptly popped it in my mouth.
It was not candy.

it didn't happen o me in real life but in my mind when i first heard of eminem i thought he was a literal rapping m&m

I would never believe it now, but when I was a kid I hated sleeping during the day (please, bring back those times, and let's start over...). So when we went for an afternoon nap in the kindergarten, I did whatever to entertain myself and stay awake. I used to blackmail my friend who slept next to me and threatened to tell everyone that she liked one older boy (to be honest, everyone was in love with him) if she wouldn't talk to me. I mean, it worked, but the poor child didn't get her sleep.

when we were getting in the car from school and there was a puppy in there and i said who's dog are we babysitting and they said ours

When I was younger me and my family were very close with another family that lived down the street from us. Our family had three kids and two parents and their family did as well and since we were all pretty close in age we were practically inseparable and one day we decided that we would form a club between the six of us and it would be a secret from the parents. From that day on every time they came over the house on a weekend we would secretly come up with (what we thought) was a master plan to convince the parents to let us have a sleepover and even though it often failed it was lots of fun to try and convince them. We drew pictures for them, wrote letters, and even secretly delivered messages to the front door, saying that we should get a sleepover. One day we were waken up at around 5:00 in the morning and were taken to the airport, we were so excited and when we got to the airport my parents told me and my siblings that we were going to Legoland in Florida and we were ecstatic, but when we were going to get our bags checked we noticed that the family that lived near us was also at the airport. We were excited to see them, but until the parents told us that we were going on vacation together all six of the kids thought that we were just randomly at the airport together. It might not be my favorite childhood memory but I definitely remember it very fondly and I just thought it was a fun story.

When I first met my stepmom and her daughter (She has a son as well but he doesn't like to talk to me because he wants his Dad back and he doesn't like my dad). Mia is literally THE BEST stepsister anyone could ask for. Love you girl

I remember my dad pulling over on the side of country roads to let me and my sister pick wild blueberries. When he would say "girls, back up slowly and come back to the truck" we knew we were currently sharing a blueberry bush with a bear. Another fond memory is all of us getting bundled up and sitting on sleds pulled by snow mobiles to the local Dairy Queen (by local I mean within 30 miles) and sitting in a snowbank, eating dilly bars.

We had a couple of gerbils called Tom & Jerry. My sister picked up Tom too close to the end of its tail and it fell off. Our parents woke up to our panicked whispering as we decided to hide this problem by taping the tail back on.

When I was in 3rd-4th grade my family was in the federal witness protection. I had to change my last name several times. (They made me keep my first name incase I said it by mistake) We lived in several different states. Once while being moved to new location the FBI guy that was driving us (very large tall man)stopped at McDonald’s. As we got out he went to adjust his coat and his gun fell out and slid across the parking lot. People stopped turned around and got back in their car. Just one of the interesting stories of that time. We were in there because my stepfather turned states evidence against his mother and brother. The story can be found on google.

i loved getting my first iphone

Probably building legos with my dad or mountain biking

Example :) :I remember my dad taking me to the beach with our bikes and me crashing into a tree :l but I almost twisted my foot/ankle when I was going down a steep hill (yes my dad was watching me but he was calling my mom)

Example 2 :p : When we went to target when I was like 6 I started begging my dad for the new Lego friends toy building.And I loved the furniture so he got it and i still have it today (in parts I destroyed it for my custom house UWU ) But I do have a picture of the full building but idk where :L

trying to ride a bike for the first time, but then, no training wheels

I ran into a BRICK mailbox by riding my bike.

I think I was about 5 years old my family drove from Portland Oregon to conneautville Pennsylvania to meet my dad's family for the first time. I remember the trip vaguely what I do remember is seeing so much buffalo. And on the way home we were going to Mount Rushmore and I remember saying Dad look at the heads we're here!!! That was one of my most memorable best ever childhood memories that I can remember and I'm 36 years old now

im still a child but ok

when I found out my pets were the opposite gender
I thought my dog was a girl but he is a dude
I took him to the vet, turns out he is a dude

my cat is a girl....and pregnant
she gave birth on my blanket, that was my favorite since I was a baby

r.i.p baby bunny blanket ಠ╭╮ಠ

I was three, waiting for my sister to come of school. Sitting on a swing in the rec & a much older girl said if I didn’t go with her she would kill me. I went with her. I remember being in the fir tree plantation. She said I had a spot of blood on my leg and I should take my tights off. Then it was dark and she was trying to blag packets of crisps from a pub. Then the police car and her dragging me, trying to run away from the policeman. Then what I always see in my mind as a photograph - every family member on or around the sofa. Then the next morning and a policeman trying to ask me questions.

Today, I still have no idea what exactly happened. Perhaps it’s a form of coping mechanism. Not one single family member has ever mentioned it since. Sorry to be downbeat fellow Pandas but it’s kind of therapeutic to get it written down.
