1. Children's familiarity with an object related to a particular letter of the alphabet help them remember that letter.

Explanation

Children's familiarity with an object related to a particular letter of the alphabet can aid in their ability to remember that letter. This is because when children have a concrete object or image associated with a letter, it provides them with a visual and tactile connection, making it easier for them to recall and recognize the letter. This association helps enhance their memory and understanding of the alphabet.
