If its a jar for yourself to treasure about memories from your own life, then put in anything that was big and important or funny to you at the time. You can go back as far as you can remember. I still remember having one of those molded plastic doll babies with painted on hair and one foot cracked off. I couldnt stand my doll having it half cracked off, afraid I'd pinch my fingers so I placed it on the edge of bricks from fireplace and stomped on it til the foot came off completely. I lost my doll at a park soon after and when parents bought a replacement, I knew it was'n't my doll cus it had 2 feet so Dad had to saw the correct one off so I'd accept the doll.
It's short stories like this that also make a wonderful memorys for loved ones once a person gets old and passes on. Simple heartwarming or funny stories of your personal experiences, or lets say its for an elderly Mom and all her kids put in memories of things she did that made her a great mom and the funny stuff like maybe the cupcakes she baked for you to take to school and they were terrible cus she accidently used salt instead of sugar. Its those kinds of things that will help. You won't think of all the stories to fill up the jar right away with notes. But put the ones you do remember and carry a note pad with you because at random times, sometimes away from home, another memory will come to you. jO

My thoughts are that a memory jar is like someone's personal time capsule. something that a girl might have than a guy. If I'm correct then I believe things she may want to put into that jar would be memories of a first date, a first kiss and other romantic first.
Some other things that you might want to put into the Jar are Prom night memories. The first acceptance letter from a college. Pictures of maybe your first driver's license, your first car and things that are important to you know you might want to share with your children sometime or just be able to relive sometime in the future.
