10 Mysterious Kids Who Remember Their Past Lives

The concept of reincarnation has been around for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. Many religions, such as Buddhism, Hinduism, Sikhism, and Jainism, to name a few, believe that we are reincarnated after death.

Now, while it is widely accepted that a reincarnated soul has no memory of its past life, there are some who believe that very young children may have access to some of those past memories. In fact, scientists who have studied the phenomenon found that 100% of cases occurred in young children. The average age of onset is between three and four years old.

Whether or not you believe in reincarnation and past life exploration, this list of 10 kids who remember their past selves will still shock you; some of these children have detailed memories that actually match up with historical events. Often, they know things that such young children would never have reason to know, or even have had the chance to learn!
