    C. At

    • C.

      At

    Correct Answer
    A. In
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "in." The preposition "in" is used to indicate location inside a space or area. In this case, it suggests that the children are playing inside the street. The prepositions "on" and "at" would not be appropriate in this context, as they imply a different relationship to the location.
