    I remember getting one of those cars you push along the ground and the back wheels develop their own momentum from a flywheel propelling the car along when you let it go.

    I think I was probably about 4/5 and I remember it because one of my Uncles stepped on it and broke it.

    This wouldnt be the earliest but I remember getting a white stereo record player in the late 70s and the Status Quo single Rockin All Over the World. This awoke my curious interest in vinyl records and I have been collecting them ever since.

    A blue electric kids quad bike, it was the absolute nuts. I rode it around the house (sometimes standing on the seat, bending over to steer it) all day, think I was 3 or 4.
