Which do you think?

A, the others seem wrong.
If you read them out loud you can generally tell when punctuation is correct. Remember, commas are usually brief pauses.
my answer would be b because you have to ask yourself who wore there bots and why did they wear their boots. good luck
sorry for misspelling the word boots type to fast.
No brainer, the answer is A. The punctuation you used is what you call and introductory comma and what follows it is a complete sentence may it be a simple or compound and what not sentence.
But maybe grammar-wise, the construction of your sentence is incorrect.
A is the correct answer because you have an introductory clause, which needs a comma after it, followed by a sentence or complete thought. A. Until the snow on the ground melted, the children wore their boots. Now to omit the comma, you could always rewrite the sentence as follows: The children wore their boots until the snow on the ground melted.
