Solution

The correct option is A children's
The possessive case of a plural noun which does not end with the letter "s" is formed by adding an apostrophe at the end of the noun followed by the letter "s". In this case, the possessive form of the noun "children" is "children's'". Hence the correct answer is option D.
Options A, B and C are incorrect as they do not follow the pattern as mentioned above (i.e apostrophe followed by letter "s").
