Some of us liked LEGOs. Some of us played with tiny toy soldiers. Some of us loved particular dolls. Some of us liked clay or paint or crayons. Some of us lined up toy trucks and cars. Some of us had stables of little ponies. And some of us played office. Think back over your own childhood. What was your favorite toy? And how was that a glimpse into who you are now?

Was it your next door neighbor's little girl? Someone you met at kindergarten? Or an imaginary creature you've long since forgotten? Who was your best friend as a child? What did you learn from them? And where are they now?

Were you quiet? Sociable? A bookworm? What were you like as a child, and how is this reflected in who you are today?

Where was your childhood home? What city? What was your neighborhood like? Your house? What do you remember most?

You've been on quite a journey since you first learned to walk, and while you might not remember your first steps, you can probably remember the shoes of your childhood.

Some of you still live near your first home; others have traveled widely. Whatever the case might be with you, think for a minute about the last time you visited your childhood home, and then share a bit what it was like.

Think back to when you were a child, and what it was like being parented. What would you have wanted your own mother to know?

When you were little, what was your favorite story? Was it one of the old Grimm's fairy tales, or a myth of some sort? A fable? A favorite book? Or was it a story from within your family? What captivated you most about it?

How did your current (or usual) haircut evolve? Do you like having others cut your hair? What about what you were young? And what's the most outrageous thing you've done to your hair?

(Bonus points if you've got photos. :)

What's the first thing you remember? What's the most vivid memory of your childhood?
