Your Earliest Educational Technology Memories

What is your earliest educational technology memory? Share with us here! Feel free to add a photo, if you have access to one, that shows you with educational technology. Failing that, link to a website or YouTube video that shows the same educational technology.

Here you will see the creator of the blog with a piece of 'educational' technology. He used to fill the bird bath with it. He knew that filling the bath by using the technology would allow the birds to come closer. His first word was birdie. Now, needless to say, this isn't quite the ed tech we're looking for, but I do have my parents scouring the old albums to find a more suitable picture! :)
