Childhood Memories(演讲讲稿)

Childhood Memories

Juanita

The image of childhood is like a paradise with warm sunshine, pretty flowers and many peaceful and joyful things in it. Yet when we were children, we didn’t fully realize it for we were too young to understand or even try to understand. Now, we can feel that the soul of childhood is just a pure poet, an elegant prose. However, everybody here today, including me, is not child any longer.

So, it seems that childhood is something for us to memory. And I bet you, no matter who you are and what are you doing, your childhood memory always exist in the deepest part of your mind and has a great impact on your adult life. What’s more, you may often consciously or unconsciously think of your childhood experiences with smiles on your face, especially when you are calm and alone. At least for me it happens.

Today, I’d like to share some of my childhood memories with you and perhaps you could also find some familiar points, because at that age, the toys or junk foods for children are not so diverse as nowadays and we may have the same.

Then, let’s go!

For the entire Chinese primary school students, perhaps “HongLingJin” is the only thing that exists in their life for all the six years, since students are asked

or made to wear them every weekday. I still remember the strictest rule in my primary school, that is: no “HongLingJin” and no acceptation to the classes. I just became so bored to wear it at that time, and when I finally graduated I thought I wouldn’t even think of it any more. But now I remember it and memory it. Along with it, I can see all my satisfying days without any real worry. I believe the six years with “HongLingJin” in my life will be one of the happiest days throughout my life.

And do you still remember these paper things? With only one blank paper, we have various ways to have fun. As you can see from the screen, there are paper swan, paper plane, paper boat, paper frog and so on. As a matter of fact, I can fold all of them when I was a kid, but not now unfortunately. I learned how to fold them from my friends. And at that time I really wonder who discovered how to make them? That must be a person with unbelievable imagination. But it’s a pity that I haven’t found out the answer to the question till now.

Here is the part about junk foods in my childhood. They don’t look so appealing to me now, in fact, they are not good-looked, nor are they delicious. I guess for children nowadays they won’t even taste a bite. But I don’t have many other junk foods except them. For me at that time I thought they were just very good and I did have some sweet memories with them in my childhood.

Those are some of my memories when I was a child. Although our childhoods have gone for good, no one can stop us to keep them in our memories. Furthermore, I hold a belief that it’s better for us to keep a child’s heart all

through our life. Just imagine you are a kid and look at the society with a child’s eyes. I believe in this way many of the troubles in your life won’t be as disturbing as before. Also, you can gain more happiness.

At last, I want to stress again that childhood is a very beautiful part in a person’

s life. That’s it. Thank you all.
