Title: Littlefoot remembers his own birth. What?

At the end of movie 1 Littlefoot had a flashback (followed by scores more) of his own birth...how is that possible? No one remembers their own birth! Littlefoot must have a very good memory!

The producers summarized all the scenes with the beautiful moments of his life as some kind of  flashback. Don't interpret too much in that.

I'm not trying to "interpret anything"...okay, maybe I am, but why is it wrong?

Hmm I don't think it's his memory, but as Dilopho said, more a summary of events. The birth of Littlefoot is in there to show the whole process, from start to finish. Just to give people watching the movie a little bit to be sentimental about ;)

Yes, probably a summary ^^  I don't think he's actively conjuring up the imagery but moreso the nature of telling (and closing) the tale
